I know that i can do a emerge -uDN world and upgrade all programs that
in the "world enviroment". But some time ago i see in this list a way
to check and upgrade all programs installed in system.
Someone remember or know how i can do it?
Could it have been this thread:

I think there were some warnings there against it, but IIRC I didn't
find them terribly specific or compelling, so 'emerge -1 `eix -Iu --
only-names`' works here. I would think your need for this would be
rare, however, and you should be sure to run revdep-rebuild afterwards.
