I realise when you've been debugging for a while you're brain may get a |
| 15 |
bit frazzled, but if you looked at `man emerge` you would find the answer. |

In sympathy, here are the relevant parts: |

SYNOPSIS |
| 20 |
emerge [options] [action] [ebuild | tbz2file | file | @set | atom] |
| 21 |
... |
| 22 |
atom An atom describes bounds on a package that you wish to install. |
| 23 |
See portage(5) for the details on atom syntax. For example, |
| 24 |
>=dev-lang/python-2.2.1-r2 |
| 25 |
... |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
--depclean |
| 28 |
--- |
| 29 |
Use --depclean together with |
| 30 |
--verbose to show reverse dependencies. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Now, I have to leave you with something to do to find the _exact_ syntax |
| 33 |
in your situation :) |
