Hello list!

I am trying to get the 'Zen' of emerge. Please CMIIW on the following points:

* emerge --oneshot package will install package but does not record it in @world

* To update a oneshot-ed package, I must either do it explicitly
(emerge --update package), or use --deep against world (emerge
--update --deep @world)

* --update-ing a package will not record it in @world

* If I want that package to be included in @world, I have to re-emerge it

So, did I get everything right?

I don't think that "--deep" will update stuff that isn't a direct or indirect dependency of packages that are in world.
