I was googling and found this link (below) but can not seem to find this page from the Gentoo.org home page. Why? And are there any other pages like this that may be useful? How does one get to them from the gentoo home page?

Thanks

(I don't know about links from the Gentoo pages.) Are you
aware of these two text files
Code: | /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc
/usr/portage/profiles/use.local.desc |
which should be present on your Gentoo system? _________________ Your thread resolved? Putting [SOLVED] in its title helps all Gentooers. (Button "edit" , first post)

Thanks for the suggestion.
I am curious about the links on the webpage as I refer to the docs on regular basis. I wanted to know how to get to them from the home page since it appears that some docs are not linked judging by the google find. I was wondering what else might be there that would be useful to read.

You can file a bug report, probably to docs-team@gentoo.org, to get some kind of official answer. From past bug reports I could assume that the answer is, that the page won't be linked to main site because it only contains global use flags and is essentially hacked up listing from /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc (and it doesn't include use.local.desc). |
