Hi,
I've been away for a while and noticed that after certain updates of my system strange USE flags are shown at the command "emerge -av <sth>". Some use flags have a % sign appended to them. what are they?
I've read a portage guide and found nothing about % sign.


Example:
Code:

emerge -av lirc

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

man emerge wrote:
[ebuild U ] sys-devel/distcc-2.16 [2.13-r1] USE="ipv6* -gtk -qt%"
Here we see that the make.conf variable USE affects how this
package is built. In this example, ipv6 optional support is
enabled and both gtk and qt support are disabled. The asterisk
following ipv6 indicates that ipv6 support was disabled the last
time this packages was installed. The percent sign following qt
indicates that the qt option has been added to the package since
it was last installed.
*Note: Flags that haven't changed since the last install are
only displayed when you use the --pretend and --verbose options.
Using the --quiet option will prevent all information from being
displayed.

Thanks a bunch. Clear enough. Where did you get that info form?
