26 If that doesn't pull in the missing bits, you have USE flags and/or
27 package.mask getting in the way.

29 equery depends might help, but it's only accurate for stuff you already have.
30 For more complex things, I usually read the ebuild and see what *DEPEND says
31
32 You'll have to find what -meta package[1] pulls in dolphin and usb viewer
33 (grep ... *-meta/*ebuild) comes in handy here and then read those ebuilds to
34 find themerge conditions.
35
36 kde-meta is merely a meta package for other meta packages...
