The suggested equery wasn't much help, but grep-ing use.local.desc was a gold |
| 25 |
mine. Thanks! I had already looked into use.desc and I stopped there and |
| 26 |
posted my request for help. Why is it, that use.desc contains less |
| 27 |
information about the use flags than use.local.desc? |

Other than that, thank you very much. |
