All that --ignore-world does it remove the implicit @world root the dependency graph, so --complete-graph options no longer pull @world and its deep dependencies into the dependency graph. It's still possible to use @world together with --ignore-world, but in this case --ignore-world has no effect because @world has been pulled in explicitly (and pulling @world in implicitly would be redundant in this case). -- Thanks, Zac signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Thinking some more on the implications of your question, it seems like you were thinking that packages matched by the excluded set would somehow be magically eliminated from the dependency graph? That's not how --ignore-world works at all. Things matched by @world, @selected, @system, and their deep dependencies can still be pulled into the dependency graph despite --ignore-world. The only difference with --ignore-world is that @world is no longer an implicit member of the dependency graph, so --complete-graph options will not force @world into the dependency graph, and the packages given as arguments will be the only root(s) of the dependency graph. -- Thanks, Zac signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Your idea doesn't really fit the current meaning of --exclude, since --exclude excludes packages from being merged, but still adds installed instances to the dependency graph in order to ensure that their dependencies remain satisfied. I'd question the usefulness of a finer-grained approach that you're suggesting. I don't foresee people wanting to fiddle around with which package sets they want to ignore, and I wouldn't encourage them to do so. The intention of the --ignore-world option is to say, "I only care about the packages that I'm specifying in the emerge arguments, do anything necessary to install them." In this sort of situation, I think a person generally wants to ignore everything except the given packages and their dependencies, because they don't want to do a bunch of fiddling to figure out which sets they'd need to exclude in order to avoid conflicts. If they want to fiddle with something, they are free to adjust their package set configuration, so why wouldn't they? Anyway, I'm not necessarily opposed to adding a finer grained --ignore-set option. However, it would be more work, it would be more complex, and I wouldn't advise anyone to use it. If people want to automate something in a disposable system, or they're in a position to use --ask and check the result for sanity, then I think --ignore-world is a good solution.

Hi Zac,
alternatively could --exclude be extended to support sets?
So users could --exclude @world or @profile.

[gentoo-portage-dev] [PATCH] emerge: add --ignore-world [ y | n ] option (bug 608564)
Ignore the @world package set and its dependencies. This may be useful
if there is a desire to perform an action even though it might break
the dependencies of some installed packages (it might also remove
installed packages in order to solve blockers). This also alters the
behavior of --complete-graph options so that only deep dependencies
of packages given as arguments are included in the dependency graph.
This option may be useful as an alternative to --nodeps in cases where
it is desirable to account for dependencies of packages given as
arguments.
