[SOLVED] Can I define my own use flag?

[new_item]

Hello all,

I would like to define my own use flag in overlay, which I am preparing.

Is it possible to define brand new USE flag?

Lets say I have my own program which can use two libraries written by myself. But it is optional.

I would like to define two new USE flags:
use_lib_one
use_lib_two

In which files I have to define it ?

Best regards,
new_item.

Just include them in the IUSE variable in the ebuild and then use them within the rest of the ebuild to control the changes in the build process as needed. There's no separate definition required.

Thank you very much for your reply.

It was not obvious for me. It's nice that portage is working that way
