" emerge -uD --reinstall=changed-use @world " |

This skips rebuilds for packages that receive new use flags or have |
| 32 |
use flags removed but were already disabled. Unfortunately it's not |
| 33 |
as convenient to type as -uDN , but it does keep your system updated |
| 34 |
while skipping spurious/unnecessary rebuilds. |

I wonder if it might be pertinent for future portage's to install an |
| 38 |
alias command, "emerge-system-update" or similar, that would wrap the |
| 39 |
standardly accepted emerge update command more or less everyone |
| 40 |
already runs.. easier end-user experience as they don't need to |
| 41 |
learn/remember all the little fiddly options, plus portage dev's can |
| 42 |
control the default (probably we make it over-ridable via a make.conf |
| 43 |
var or something) so that if things change with newer EAPIs or portage |
| 44 |
features the default flags can be adjusted too... |
