I would use the -a option unless the output of the first part is being emailed to you or something. Other than using -a instead of -p, I don't see anything missing. Just check the USE flags before letting it update. They get changed sometimes and it could cause issues. Sometimes the change is for the good so always look into it first. You *may* want to look into dispatch-conf too. It does the same as etc-update but it keeps records in case a updated config file borks your system. Just a thought.
