Ran that and the list is actually pretty short. I go with defaults unless it is something that is specific to my setup. Such as -gnome or kde since I don't use the former but do use the later. Sometimes when I emerge something that conflicts, I have to pick one over the other and portage lets me know that. That usually goes in package.use which is also a small file. So, doesn't seem to help much here. Did find a new command tho. ;-) Thanks Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
