That would be use.defaults, which I personally think is evil. The idea |
| 10 |
behind it is if you install a package, then you want to turn on the |
| 11 |
corresponding USE flag. All of the current definitions can be found in |
| 12 |
$PORTDIR/profiles/base/use.defaults It contains a list of USE flags |
| 13 |
followed by the package that automatically turns that flag on. |
