9 - From man emerge:
10 --update (-u)
11 Updates packages to the best version available, which may not always be the highest
12 version number due to masking for testing and development. This will also update direct
13 dependencies which may not be what you want. Package atoms specified on the command line are
14 greedy, meaning that unspecific atoms may match multiple installed versions of slot-ted packages.
15
16 You can use --nodeps, too, so you only update the specific package, with no deps.
