The warning was here. You just missed it :-) Recently, I did an
"emerge -auDN world", and there was a USE flag change. Namely "mysql"
was removed from the default enabled flags of qt-sql, marked as "-mysql"
in a yellow color.
Yeah, it's easy to miss. But using Gentoo for quite a while now, I've
learned to pay attention to the smallest detail in the output of emerge
before entering "y" ;-)
