Note that the IUSE variable is cumulative, so there is no need to specify -USE flags used only within inherited eclasses within the ebuild's IUSE. Also -note that it's really really broken in portage versions before 2.0.51. +USE flags used only within inherited eclasses within the ebuild's IUSE.

You must always add the IUSE variable in your ebuild even if it is empty.
