USE flags

  • berkdb - Add support for sys-libs/db (Berkeley DB for MySQL)
  • debug - Enable extra debug codepaths, like asserts and extra output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces see https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Backtraces
  • doc - Add extra documentation (API, Javadoc, etc). It is recommended to enable per package instead of globally
  • examples - Install examples, usually source code
  • gdbm - Add support for sys-libs/gdbm (GNU database libraries)
  • ipv6 - Add support for IP version 6
  • jemalloc - Use dev-libs/jemalloc for memory management
  • jit - Enable just-in-time compilation for improved performance. May prevent use of some PaX memory protection features in Gentoo Hardened.
  • rdoc - Install dev-ruby/rdoc after installing Ruby.
  • socks5 - Add support for the socks5 proxy
  • ssl - Add support for SSL/TLS connections (Secure Socket Layer / Transport Layer Security)
  • static-libs - Build static versions of dynamic libraries as well
  • systemtap - Enable SystemTAP/DTrace tracing
