Does anyone else think it would be useful for emerge to have a switch to make it re-emerge all of the individual packages making up a meta-package? 'emerge metapackage' does not do enough and 'emerge -e metapackage' will rebuild too much.Either that or a utility to split a meta-package into its constituent parts, so you could have something like 'emerge $(qsplit xorg-drivers)'. Though in the case of xorg-drivers the recommended 'emerge $(qlist -IC xorg-drivers/)' works just as well, but this is just pure luck as the required packages are in a single category which contains no other packages.
