+<p> |
| 45 |
+By default, the dependency graph may not include some packages. For example, |
| 46 |
+it will not include any packages that are listed in the output of |
| 47 |
+<c>emerge --pretend --depclean</c>. It will also not include any build time |
| 48 |
+dependencies for installed packages or binary packages. If you would like to |
| 49 |
+include such build time dependencies even though they are not strictly |
| 50 |
+required, use <c>--with-bdeps=y</c>. You can set |
| 51 |
+<c>EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--with-bdeps=y"</c> in <path>/etc/make.conf</path> if |
| 52 |
+you would like this option to be enabled by default. |
| 53 |
+If you would like a specific package to be updated in any case, you can use |
| 54 |
+<c>emerge --noreplace <atom></c> to have it added to the world set. |
| 55 |
+</p> |
| 56 |
+<p> |
| 57 |
+After running <c>emerge --deep --with-bdeps=y world</c>, it is a good idea to |
| 58 |
+use <c>emerge --pretend --depclean</c> to see if there are any packages that |
| 59 |
+it would remove. If that command shows a package that you would like to keep, |
| 60 |
+use <c>emerge --noreplace <atom></c> to have it added to the world set. |
| 61 |
+</p> |
| 62 |
+<warn>When you use <c>emerge --depclean</c> to remove unwanted packages, it is |
| 63 |
+a good idea to run <c>revdep-rebuild</c> (from the gentoolkit package) |
| 64 |
+afterwards.</warn> |
| 65 |
+<note>Run <c>man emerge</c> to view the manual page which documents all |
| 66 |
+<c>emerge</c> options.</note> |
