I find equery uses to give silly output. It is telling you that the ebuild |
| 30 |
looks at the avahi USE flag (i.e. it's in IUSE), not that it is actually |
| 31 |
active for that package. |

eix gives the output you actually want - it tells you which flags are listed, |
| 36 |
and is you have selected them or not for the package. |

|
| 38 |
Most likely is that you have 'kdelibs -avahi' in package.use |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
Try these: |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
grep -r kdelibs /etc/portage/* |
| 43 |
grep -r avahi /etc/portage/* |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
