$ cat /var/cache/edb/world


will give you every main package installed

$emerge --pretend --emptytree world will list every package in your box.

i'm sure there's a better way using qpkg, but i don't know it is....

Somewhat related question: I started an "emerge --emptytree world" with the gtk2 in my USE flags. Mozilla stopped the process with a warning about how it's not a good idea to compile it with gtk2 enabled.


1. Is there a way to emerge the world as above, but specify a USE flag modification to a specific package 'in the world'.
2. Since the emerge world stopped I have to manually emerge the rest of the packages after Mozilla( ~100 ). Is there a way of saying 'emerge world, starting at package 'foo'' ( from the cmdline options, as opposed to parsing the --pretend output with some tool )?


        Thanks,
