-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is there a way with emerge or equery to determine what other package a given package is a dependency for?
As a clarification, I have the "net-dialup/" subtree excluded from portage as described by another thread on this list (/etc/portage/rsyc_excludes). But when I run "emerge --ask --verbose - --update --newuse --deep world", I get the "net-dialup/ppp" package as one that is queued to be installed. I can only guess that this means that it's a dependency of another package that is already installed. So, how would I found out what the "root" package is that is requiring net-dialup/ppp as a dependency?
