• abi_mips_n64 - 64-bit libraries
• abi_mips_o32 - 32-bit libraries
• abi_ppc_32 - 32-bit (ppc) libraries
• abi_ppc_64 - 64-bit (ppc64) libraries
• abi_s390_32 - 32-bit (s390) libraries

• abi_x86_64 - 64-bit (amd64) libraries
• abi_x86_x32 - x32 ABI libraries
• dbus - Enable dependencies required by glib libraries using dbus service to manage settings saving
• 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
• fam - Enable FAM (File Alteration Monitor) support
• gtk-doc - Build and install gtk-doc based developer documentation for dev-util/devhelp, IDE and offline use
• hardened - Activate default security enhancements for toolchain (gcc, glibc, binutils)
• kernel_linux - KERNEL setting for system using the Linux kernel
• mime - Pull in shared MIME database that many glib-based applications require at runtime to detect or open files. Warning: do not disable this flag unless installing on a headless server.
• python_single_target_python2_7 - Build for Python 2.7 only
• python_single_target_python3_5 - Build for Python 3.5 only
• python_single_target_python3_6 - Build for Python 3.6 only
• python_single_target_python3_7 - Build for Python 3.7 only
• python_targets_python2_5 - Build with Python 2.5
• python_targets_python2_6 - Build with Python 2.6 (removed)
• python_targets_python2_7 - Build with Python 2.7
• python_targets_python3_5 - Build with Python 3.5
• python_targets_python3_6 - Build with Python 3.6
• python_targets_python3_7 - Build with Python 3.7
• selinux - !!internal use only!! Security Enhanced Linux support, this must be set by the selinux profile or breakage will occur
• static-libs - Build static versions of dynamic libraries as well
• systemtap - Build support for profiling and tracing using dev-util/systemtap
• test - Enable dependencies and/or preparations necessary to run tests (usually controlled by FEATURES=test but can be toggled independently)
• utils - Install gtester-report utility to generate test report files for your software; build gresource utility with ELF support.
• xattr - Add support for extended attributes (filesystem-stored metadata)
