USE flags

  • 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
  • gssapi - Enable support for GSSAPI (virtual/krb5)
  • gtk - Build the PuTTY client which requires x11-libs/gtk+. If disabled only the CLI tools puttygen, plink, pscp and psftp will be built
