First, add -t to the emerge to get a tree view of the dependencies. |

Then there are a few options; either make your own ebuilds in an |

overlay, or make your own profile which can be used to enforce some |

packages or not, or finally just tweak the use flags. |

/etc/make.conf I believe. ROOT may not have any make.conf. |

Well, I may be obnoxious but I do a stage4 with catalyst (total 200 |
22 |
packages or so) and then trim it down using unmerge, empty and rm in |
23 |
the spec file to suite. catalyst doesn't do cross yet AFAIK so if you |
24 |
need that it's not really an option I guess. |
