6 The big difference between the last command in my previous response to this
7 thread and an eix command like:
8
9 # eix -nI --format '<category>()/<name>()' | \
10 grep -v '^$\|^Found\ [0-9]*\|^\[[0-9]*\]'
11
12 is that the eix command will include all installed packages (including those
13 that would show up if you run emerge --depclean -p) whereas the emerge
14 command will only show packages that are either in world or a dependency of a
15 package in world (direct or indirect). --with-bdeps (see `man emerge`) also
16 affects the emerge package list.
