41 'equery depends' shows depedencies and possible depedencies, and it
42 doesn't care if they're installed or not.
43
44 For example, if I've set USE=minimal for xinit so xterm won't be
45 pulled in:
46
47
48
49
50 mki@pli ~ $ equery d xterm
51 [ Searching for packages depending on xterm... ]
52 x11-apps/xinit-1.0.5-r1 (!minimal? x11-terms/xterm)
53 mki@pli ~ $ emerge -pv xterm
54
55 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
56
57 Calculating dependencies... done!
58 [ebuild N ] sys-libs/libutempter-1.1.5 15 kB
59 [ebuild N ] x11-apps/luit-1.0.2 USE="-debug" 97 kB
60 [ebuild N ] x11-terms/xterm-235 USE="truetype unicode -Xaw3d
61 -paste64 -toolbar" 838 kB
62
63 Total: 3 packages (3 new), Size of downloads: 949 kB
64 mki@pli ~ $ emerge -pv xinit
65
66 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
67
68 Calculating dependencies... done!
69 [ebuild R ] x11-apps/xinit-1.0.5-r1 USE="minimal pam -debug -hal"
70 105 kB
71
72 Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 105 kB
73 mki@pli ~ $
74
75
76
77 In the aspell case, the (>=app-text/aspell-0.60) from equery means 'if
78 USE=spell, depend on aspell'
79
80 I hope that explains it
