I keep control of my USE flags, lets say, "manually". Of course, at |
| 2 |
install time you get a couple of defaults just to make sure you don't |
| 3 |
miss anything crucial. After that, every package goes trough an emerge |
| 4 |
-pv, its USE flags set at packages.use, I compile it. Of course, its |
| 5 |
tedious, its slow, but it gives me full control over my system, and I |
| 6 |
feel good with all the customized settings. |

Eventually a good flag goes to make.conf, but that's rare, most of |
| 9 |
them are specific for some packages. |
