[gentoo-user] default compile options / USE flags?

[gentoo-user] default compile options / USE flags?

[Jarry]

Hi,

I would like to find how a certain package would be compiled
(with which USE-flags) if I did not have any USE-flags in
/etc/make.conf, and empty /etc/portage/package.use

Up to now I'm using this procedure:
- comment USE-line in /etc/make.conf out,
- rename /etc/portage/package.use to some other name,
- run "emerge --pretend --verbose <package>"
- check output (that is what I am interested in)
- and restore make.conf and package.use

But is there some other, probably cleaner solution?
And what is the meaning of colors (some are blue,
some red, some yellow, etc.) used for USE-flags
in output?

USE_ORDER=defaults emerge -pv cat-egory/package

Looks to me like:

red: flag turned on
blue: flag turned off
green: flag you have turned on since the last time this package was
merged (also has a '*' after the flag)
yellow: flag added since the last time this package was merged (also
has a '%' after the flag).

Red flags will be used in the emerge, blue ones will not. Green ones
weren't used the last time you emerged that package, but will be used
this time. Yellow ones didn't exist for that packager the last time
you emerged it, but they do now.
