Portage will ask to autounmask USE flags who may have been affected by a change in an ebuild, or by a change in the default USE flags stipulated by make.profile. However, it is up to you as the maintainer of the system to study both USE and keyword changes and decide what their impact might be on your system. Then accept or reject these changes before you proceed with emerge. -- Regards, Mick
