Uh, no. That'll emerge all the following packages with gtk2 as well, which could cause havoc with packages that don't have gtk2 100% ready yet. You'd want to do something more like
USE=gtk2 emerge mozilla
perhaps.
I've seen "export USE="gtk2", "emerge mozilla" suggested before and thought it was a bad idea too. Until you logout and back in, that $USE variable remains in effect. How would "emerge -u gaim", which I believe has NO GTK2 support yet, handle that ??
"USE=gtk2 emerge mozilla" means to use the $USE variable for _this command only_. Correct ?? Just checked the "Gentoo Guide to USE Flags", http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/use-howto.xml, and the one-line method is given there too.
