I'm not a developer, but I use the following

Leviathan ~ # grep FEAT /etc/make.conf
FEATURES="parallel-fetch distclean ccache confcache"
Leviathan ~ #

For the average user, these are a safe bet, the last two are apps you'll
need to emerge and set up as well. pretty simple and straight forward.

| OK, so this seems to be part of using the FEATURES=" ... " line in
make.conf.
|
| I do not have a FEATURES line at all so I'm hesitant to just start

|

|
| Anyway, if someone can help clear this up I would appreciate it.
