If you want to make sure you get everything, I would do a emerge -ef |
19 |
<package>. That should get everything needed for sure. The "e" stands |
20 |
for emptytree but I always think of it as everything. If used with the |
21 |
option world it gets everything needed to recompile the complete |
22 |
system. Example: emerge -ef world |

Hope that helps. |
