These are the packages that I actually emerged to keep the system lean
(from world file):
dev-texlive/texlive-fontsextra
dev-texlive/texlive-latex
dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra
everything else from dev-texlive was pulled as dependencies. As a result
I have

and if I do emerge texlive (the USE flag is extra) I get:
-> emerge -vp texlive
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!

And indeed texlive-mathextra-2008 is pulled in but look at all the rest!
It seems there should be a way to install mathextra without all the
