[gentoo-user] USE settings

[James]

Hello,

Besides /etc/portage/package.*
/etc/make.conf
/etc/make.profile/make.defaults
/etc/make.globals

is there any other place that Gentoo sets USE variables?


curious,
James

The profile is cascading. This will show you the USE flags of every 
make.defaults in your profile:

# cd /etc/`ls -ld /etc/make.profile | awk '{print $NF}'`
# while [[ -f parent ]]; do grep ^USE make.defaults ; \
	cd `cat parent`; done ; grep ^USE make.defaults
