Never depend on a meta-package.
So don't depend on gnome-base/gnome, always depend on the specific libraries like libgnome.
<UNQUOTE>

Where can I find a definition of this term?

Is there some equery/qsearch invocation that returns a list of such packages (installed or available)? Is there some ebuild setting that marks a package as being a "meta" package? Does gnome-base/gnome carry this setting?

Thanks,
Amit
