Thanks. That sounds like what I'm looking for. > I've heard that USE="-*" has broken some builds in the past but I'm > not sure about the current state of things. I won't be running with all USE flags wiped. In /etc/portage/use.mask I'll USE="-*", and add the ones I want/need in /etc/make.conf and/or /etc/portage/package.use. OK, so maybe I am a bit of a control freak. When I say USE="a b c", that's what I want; no more and no less. Asking for "a b c" and getting "a b c x y z" is not my definition of being in control. -- Walter Dnes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> My musings on technology and security at http://tech_sec.blog.ca -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
