Hmm ...

$ euse -i dhl
global use flags (searching: dhl)
************************************************************
no matching entries found

local use flags (searching: dhl)

$ euse -i ups
global use flags (searching: ups)
************************************************************
no matching entries found

local use flags (searching: ups)
************************************************************
[-    ] ups (net-analyzer/nagios-plugins):
installs deps for monitoring Network-UPS (sys-power/nut)
