When using the ROOT= variable emerge follows the RDEPEND's if you don't |
| 6 |
have the DEPEND's installed on the host / system. If they are not |
| 7 |
installed on the host / system then the direct DEPEND's will be |
| 8 |
installed to $ROOT. This is the expected behavior. |

I find myself using ROOT=/somedir emerge -pvKe system when I need |
| 13 |
a full seed stage. you may also want to maybe check out the |

--deep/-D option. |
