18 Maybe you need "apache2" instead of "apache" USE flag?

20 Your understanding of --newuse matches mine. I did notice
21 a similiar problem this past week. I changed "-ffmpeg" to
22 "ffmpeg". Ran emerge -uDNav and only kb3 was found.
23 The next day, emerge -uDNav found xine-lib. So I too am
24 questioning whether --newuse is working properly in
25 Portage 2.0.51.22-r3.
