No. I think you just haven't created it. Try making one and see how it works. |

You also have your 'profile'. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
cat /etc/make.profile/make.defaults |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
This will show you the default flags your system is using. To that you |
| 44 |
add make.conf and any package.use flags to get what the system will |
| 45 |
use for your package. |

Not that I know of. USE flags seem sort of like a personal preference |
| 56 |
thing. There isn't any single place to go to see what the alsa flag |
| 57 |
does on a specific package. you either read the ebuild, which is WAY |
| 58 |
beyond my skill set, or ask here. Doing |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
emerge -pv package |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
and looking carefully at the flags, as you are, is a good first step. |

out. Most of the time it's OK, but sometimes I've had to recompile |
| 65 |
packages 2, 3 or even 4 times to get features I'm interested in. |
