Are you sure?! Perhaps you slipped in a '-N' without noticing? On my Gentoo system, 'emerge -tvaD R' gives only the dependencies of R even though there are other things needing to be rebuilt. In any case, emerge -tvaD R should show you what dependencies of R will be rebuilt. But if it doesn't, dig into 'equery depgraph R'. HTH, Chuck p.s. you really should 'emerge system' and 'emerge world' fairly often to keep your system up to date.
