7 Yes, this is already optional. I am trying to shrink an output, but
8 there is --verbose key to show all packages, including "unknown"
9 package and unknown stages and also there is --files key to show not
10 only packages and stages, but also files accessed(including not
11 founded and blocked).
12
13 I think in most cases filtering system packages from output is useful
14 because this packages almost never listed in dependencies and user has
15 them installed in general case.

22 This is very rare case, for example when program scans a directory.
23 I've seen this for one or two times only.
24
25 I am trying to get rid from non-dependency packages in output. Here is
26 few examples.
27 All non-system packages when "emerge lsof":
28 dev-lang/python-3.1.3-r1
29 <many files here>
30 dev-libs/openssl-1.0.0d : ['unpack', 'compile',
31 'test', 'install']
32 /etc/sandbox.d/10openssl readed
33 media-libs/fontconfig-2.8.0-r1 : ['unpack', 'compile',
34 'test', 'install']
35 /etc/sandbox.d/37fontconfig readed
36 net-zope/zope-fixers-1.0 : ['setup', 'unpack',
37 'compile', 'test', 'install', 'preinst', 'postinst', 'prerm',
38 'postrm']
39 /usr/lib64/python3.1/site-packages/zope.fixers-1.0-py3.1-nspkg.pth readed
40 net-zope/zope-interface-3.6.2 : ['setup', 'unpack',
41 'compile', 'test', 'install', 'preinst', 'postinst', 'prerm',
42 'postrm']
43 /usr/lib64/python3.1/site-packages/zope.interface-3.6.2-py3.1-nspkg.pth readed
44 sys-apps/sandbox-2.5 : ['unpack', 'compile',
45 'test', 'install']
46 /etc/sandbox.d/00default readed
47 /etc/sandbox.conf readed
48 /usr/share/sandbox/sandbox.bashrc readed
49
50 Openssl and fontconfig is here because /etc/sandbox.d/* is readed. I
51 think about filtering this directory from logging. Python is here
52 because it is not a part of system set. I don't know about zope-*
53 packages and why they have files readed.
54
55 While I do emerge bash I got more packages:
56 sys-devel/crossdev-20110310 : ['compile']
57 /usr/share/config.site readed
58 /usr/share/crossdev/include/site/linux readed
59 sys-devel/gettext-0.18.1.1-r2 : ['compile']
60 /usr/bin/msgmerge readed
61 /usr/bin/xgettext readed
62 /usr/bin/msgfmt readed
63 /usr/bin/gmsgfmt readed
64
65 Gettext is a dependency of bash, but crossdev is unknown package.

73
74 The main drawback of hooklib approach is an inability to track what
75 files have been loaded while exec call(runtime libraries). Most
76 RDEPENDS are naturally filtered here. Fusefs approach logs all file
77 system events.
78
79 This is a difficult problem to distinguish RDEPENDS from DEPENDS. If I
80 look on files accessed I can say if the dependency is runtime, but I
81 haven't general strategy. I should watch more building logs of various
82 packages to find a way.
83
84 Best,
