The directive you may have specified in ACCEPT_KEYWORDS in your /etc/portage/ make.conf, over-written by any package specific stable ARCH or testing ~ARCH entries you have added in your /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords will determine if a package version is selected to be emerged as stable or testing. https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ACCEPT_KEYWORDS The default USE flags for any package are determined by your chosen profile (eselect profile list) and they are in turn overwritten by any optional USE flags you have set for all packages in /etc/portage/make.conf, or for individual packages in /etc/portage/package.use https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/USE_flag https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/package.use > 2.

As a minimum I use these: app-portage/gentoolkit app-portage/portage-utils but there are more to choose from: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gentoolkit https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Useful_Portage_tools HTH,
