[gentoo-user] Emerging world selectively

[Fredrik Tolf]

Here's a portage question that I guess is quite elementary, but I
haven't been able to find an answer to it on my own:

If, when I emerge -Duva world, it calculates a package that I, for any
reason, would like to delay/not emerge at all, how would I do to emerge
all the packages except that one. This far, I've been running emerge
-1va on all the others in the list (manually, that is), but I'm getting
quite tired of that method, and I'm guessing that portage has some way
of avoiding it.

Thanks for any answers!
