I admit that this question is rather trivial, but here it goes. In "paludis --uninstall --with_dependencies <target>", why is the "--with-dependencies" option called "with dependencies"? To me, that seems to imply that paludis will uninstall the target package and every package that it depends on (similar to the --with-unused-dependencies option, except that it would dangerously uninstall used dependencies as well), but what it actually does (as per the documentation) is to uninstall the target package and every package that depends on the target, making it more like a "--with-depended-upon" option. In other words, if A -> B -> C, then "paludis -u --with-dependencies B" will uninstall B and C rather than B and A. Is "depended upon" considered to be a type of dependency or is the option supposed to imply "uninstall every package for which dependency=target"? Just curious. No big deal.
