After getting a couple suggestions, I guess I forgot some requirements. |

|
| 12 |
a) package-manager agnostic |
| 13 |
b) using only tools in the system set + maybe gentoolkit and portage-utils |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
I want something that anybody can use in their scripts without having to install |
| 16 |
paludis, or eix, or udept, or etc. Bonus points for actually integrating this |
| 17 |
feature into gentoolkit or portage-utils. ;) |
