There are use flag editors which will display entire list of flags (along with their descriptions) and let you select or deselect the ones you want. I use ufed, but there are some others in portage. One approach is to go through the list once (there are a lot of them) and at least select the ones you're sure you want. Then if ever some feature you wanted doesn't seem to be in place for a package, check its use flags. -- »Q« Kleeneness is next to Gödelness.
