I realize cryptic answers are the ultimate in cleverness and show
massive sophistication but how is this used to show dependencies to
some specific package.
Maybe a little more detail would keep my little pea brain from smoking
under the load ;)
I realise when you've been debugging for a while you're brain may get a
bit frazzled, but if you looked at `man emerge` you would find the answer.
In sympathy, here are the relevant parts:
SYNOPSIS
emerge [options] [action] [ebuild | tbz2file | file | @set | atom]
...
atom An atom describes bounds on a package that you wish to install.
See portage(5) for the details on atom syntax. For example,
>=dev-lang/python-2.2.1-r2
...
--depclean
---
Use --depclean together with
--verbose to show reverse dependencies.
Now, I have to leave you with something to do to find the _exact_ syntax
in your situation :)
