Gentoo allows users to select specific features and optional modules when they install a package. This is done by so-called USE flags
that may be defined either globally in /etc/portage/make.conf
or per package in /etc/portage/package.use
. If you run emerge with --verbose
(-v
) and either --pretend
(-p
) or --ask
(-a
) it will list the possible USE flags
and indicate whether or not they are selected. In general the USE flag
name should be indicative enough of its purpose.
