This is expected behaviour. |

The three packages you mention are not in world and thus don't form part |
| 41 |
of the initial search. Even though you are using -uN, nothing in world |
| 42 |
*requires* specifically those updated/latest versions, so they never |
| 43 |
make it into the dependency tree as a suitable version is already |
| 44 |
installed. |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
When you add -t though, you clear out the dependency tree, fooling |
| 47 |
portage into thinking the packages are not installed. dnspython, |
| 48 |
xcursorgen and yasm are needed and not installed so portage does the |
| 49 |
normal thing of selecting the latest versions that match your rules |
| 50 |
in /etc/portage |
