USE flags

  • bzip2 - Use the bzlib compression library
  • doc - Add extra documentation (API, Javadoc, etc). It is recommended to enable per package instead of globally
  • elf - Enable the use of elf utils to check uptime on some systems
  • ipv6 - Add support for IP version 6
  • kmem - Enable usage of /dev/kmem
  • lm-sensors - Add linux lm-sensors (hardware sensors) support
  • mfd-rewrites - Use MFD rewrites of mib modules where available
  • minimal - Install a very minimal build (disables, for example, plugins, fonts, most drivers, non-critical features)
  • mysql - Add mySQL Database support
  • netlink - Use dev-libs/libnl to fetch TCP statistics instead of using /proc/net/tcp (Linux only).
  • pcap - Install snmppcap which reads from PCAP files and writes to the SNMP transport
  • pci - Use libpci (from sys-apps/pciutils) to look up network interface description. This feature is only available on Linux.
  • pcre - Add support for Perl Compatible Regular Expressions in process table filtering.
  • perl - Add optional support/bindings for the Perl language
  • python - Add optional support/bindings for the Python language
  • python_single_target_python3_10 - Build for Python 3.10 only
  • python_single_target_python3_11 - Build for Python 3.11 only
  • python_single_target_python3_9 - Build for Python 3.9 only
  • rpm - Enable monitoring of app-arch/rpm. This flag requires the bzip2 and zlib flags to be enabled as well.
  • selinux - !!internal use only!! Security Enhanced Linux support, this must be set by the selinux profile or breakage will occur
  • smux - Enable support for the legacy smux protocol (superseded by agentx)
  • ssl - Add support for SSL/TLS connections (Secure Socket Layer / Transport Layer Security)
  • tcpd - Add support for TCP wrappers
  • ucd-compat - Build UCD compatibility library. Increases significantly the install size.
  • valgrind - Enable annotations for accuracy. May slow down runtime slightly. Safe to use even if not currently using dev-util/valgrind
  • X - Add support for X11
  • zlib - Add support for zlib (de)compression
