I disagree quite strongly with that statement. There is no clear message at all about the situation. The problem is that the USE flag is "hidden" on the package line as opposed to mentioned explicitly by portage. It's easy for software to print meaningful output based on the data it has while it is awkward for humans to scan lines and lines of output for parentheses with *s and -s. I very much appreciate that you clarified what you meant by "No". Thanks //Peter
