34 Ah excellent point, but the build did not move forward with::
35 ' emerge -uvDN world' either. With the --tree it did move forward with
36 the build update. In the first attempt usually the packages to be built
37 are listed, conflicts or blockers.
38
39 None of these 3 packages where listed in the first attempt to see
40 what needs to be built::
41 Not 'sys-devel/llvm', nor 'sys-devel/clang', nor 'media-libs/mesa'.

52 Yes, nothing to do with 'media-libs/jasper' nor 'gdk-pixbuf'. So I guess the
53 --tree option got rid of the these (conflicts issues. My point is that this
54 is remarkably better than how things worked in the past (but not certain
55 when these enhancements were made).
56
57 Thanks for pointing out blockers vs conflicts...
