This sounds like good advice but I have a question concerning
--depclean.  I would have thought that

  Any package --depclean would remove is not required by anything
  in @world so would not be merged by   emerge -e @world

On one system I am rather behind in doing --depclean and wonder if I
must finish that task before trying  emerge -e @world.

thanks,
