When googling for advice, you may want to include "site:gentoo.org" |
| 7 |
in your terms, and maybe even "handbook". |

Searching for 'blocking site:gentoo.org handbook' gives a link to a |

Portage Introduction and one to a Quick Install Guide that although |
| 10 |
very terse are together clear enough, in my opinion. |

If A was in world, it was by definition not needed. Sure, the user |
| 16 |
wanted the package, but that is something else. :) |

No need to tell the user that: she will remember which packages she |

wants to have installed. |
