If you don't want portage to employ dark magic in guessing which use flags you want enabled, don't let it. Specify your use flags explicitly. Put USE="-* oneuse twouse reduse blueuse" in make.conf to set the globals, and _then_ start tweaking in "package.use". -- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^ A unix signature isn't a return address, it's the ASCII equivalent of ^ ^ a black velvet clown painting.
