USE flags

• abi_mips_n32 - 64-bit (32-bit pointer) libraries
• abi_mips_n64 - 64-bit libraries
• abi_mips_o32 - 32-bit libraries
• abi_s390_32 - 32-bit (s390) libraries
• abi_s390_64 - 64-bit (s390x) libraries
• abi_x86_32 - 32-bit (x86) libraries
• abi_x86_64 - 64-bit (amd64) libraries
• abi_x86_x32 - x32 ABI libraries
• ada - Add bindings for the ADA programming language
• cxx - Build support for C++ (bindings, extra libraries, code generation, ...)
• 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
• gpm - Add support for sys-libs/gpm (Console-based mouse driver)
• minimal - Install a very minimal build (disables, for example, plugins, fonts, most drivers, non-critical features)
• profile - Add support for software performance analysis (will likely vary from ebuild to ebuild)
• split-usr - Enable behavior to support maintaining /bin, /lib*, /sbin and /usr/sbin separately from /usr/bin and /usr/lib*
• stack-realign - Realign the stack in the 32-bit build for compatibility with older binaries at some performance cost. Avoids crashes in older 32-bit binaries. Only affects x86/32-bit multilib builds on amd64.
• static-libs - Build static versions of dynamic libraries as well
• test - Enable dependencies and/or preparations necessary to run tests (usually controlled by FEATURES=test but can be toggled independently)
• tinfo - Build curses library (libncurses) sep from the low-level terminfo library (libtinfo) -- usually needed only for binary packages -- but it is binary compatible in either mode
• trace - Enable test trace() support in ncurses calls
• verify-sig - Verify upstream signatures on distfiles
