If you want libcanberra and therefore you must have USE=3D"gtk", but you do= not=20 want to have any other packages compiled with the gtk USE flag, you can def= ine=20 it only for the package in question by adding a line in=20 /etc/portage/package.use like so: media-libs/libcanberra gtk -oss to e.g. enable the gtk and disable the oss flags. To see whether a flag has been set or not and relevant information about it= ,=20 run: euse -i =46or libcanberra it shows: [- cD ] gtk (media-libs/libcanberra): Enables building of gtk+ helper library, gtk+ runtime sound effects and the= =20 canberra-gtk-play utility. To enable the gtk+ sound effects add canberra-gt= k- module to the colon separated list of modules in the GTK_MODULES environmen= t=20 variable. Use option -I to see which packages have been installed using a particular= =20 flag. Have a look in man euse to decipher the symbols.
