Always, when you are going to emerge some app, do an "emerge -pv
<app>" and see its flags, if there's one you want that is not enabled
(it'll appear with a minus before it), add it to the file
/etc/portage/packages.use, like this:

net-print/cups samba
app-emulation/qemu-softmmu kqemu

This means that whenever I reemerge or update cups it will always get
samba, and whenever I update qemu, it will get kqemu too.

You can do it for your whole system, using "emerge -epv world" will
cause emerge to output your entire package listing with all the flags
they are using, so you can check each one and add the flags that you
may want to change to packages.use to make it permanent. I recommend
doying it right after installing and updating portage, because after a
while this list grows A LOT (just did it in my system and got a few
hundred packages).

Whenever you change your flags (big changes or some useful flag you
want enabled all around) or want to see what new flags are available,
you do an "emerge -uDN world -pv" and see what packages have changed,
the yellow flags are new, the green flags have changed. (if I'm not
mistaken). Really, this is all on man emerge...

Depends on the package... Check uses per package...
