Well... let's say it like this: If you look at your world file, you should for each line be able to immediately say "yes I know what this is and I need it". Where "I need it" means "I need it directly", and *not* "I need it because some other package needs it". In most cases this means that libraries should not be in the world file. You'll rarely say "Yes I need Boost." Instead you may need LibreOffice, and that needs Boost... The smaller your world file is, the more freedom portage has to resolve dependencies. - -- Andreas K.
