Without fetching an out-of-date repo I have no idea what 7.0.8.11 supported as it is no longer in the repo. However, 7.0.9.8 supports: equery uses '=media-gfx/imagemagick-7.0.9.8' [ Legend : U - final flag setting for installation] [ : I - package is installed with flag ] [ Colors : set, unset ] * Found these USE flags for media-gfx/imagemagick-7.0.9.8: U I + + X : Add support for X11 + + bzip2 : Use the bzlib compression library + + corefonts : Use media-fonts/corefonts which is required by some commands + + cxx : Build support for C++ (bindings, extra libraries, code generation, ...) - - djvu : Support DjVu, a PDF-like document format esp. suited for scanned documents - - fftw : Use FFTW library for computing Fourier transforms - - fontconfig : Support for configuring and customizing font access via media-libs/fontconfig - - fpx : Enable media-libs/libfpx support - - graphviz : Add support for the Graphviz library - - hdri : Enable High Dynamic Range Images formats - - heif : Enable support for ISO/IEC 23008-12:2017 HEIF/HEIC image format using media-libs/libheif - - jbig : Enable jbig-kit support for tiff, Hylafax, ImageMagick, etc + + jpeg : Add JPEG image support + + jpeg2k : Support for JPEG 2000, a wavelet-based image compression format + + lcms : Add lcms support (color management engine) - - lqr : Enable experimental liquid rescale support using media-libs/liblqr + + lzma : Support for LZMA (de)compression algorithm - - openexr : Support for the OpenEXR graphics file format + + openmp : Build support for the OpenMP (support parallel computing), requires >=sys-devel/gcc-4.2 built with USE="openmp" + + pango : Enable Pango support using x11-libs/pango - - perl : Add optional support/bindings for the Perl language + + png : Add support for libpng (PNG images) - - postscript : Enable support for the PostScript language (often with ghostscript-gpl or libspectre) - - q32 : Set quantum depth value to 32 - - q8 : Set quantum depth value to 8 - - raw : Add support for raw image formats - - static-libs : Build static versions of dynamic libraries as well + + svg : Add support for SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) - - test : Enable dependencies and/or preparations necessary to run tests (usually controlled by FEATURES=test but can be toggled independently) + + tiff : Add support for the TIFF image format + + truetype : Add support for FreeType and/or FreeType2 fonts - - webp : Add support for the WebP image format - - wmf : Add support for the Windows Metafile vector image format + + xml : Add support for XML files + + zlib : Add support for zlib (de)compression I'm pretty skeptical that the older version supported no USE flags. How are you coming to this conclusion? -- Rich
