I read the man page for this option, I'm not sure how it would help. All that does is prevent it from recording that it is installed in the world file. Since I have -1 set as a default, it does that when I emerge single packages already. If I want to keep it and it not be --depcleaned, then I use -n --select y to add it to the world file. Thing is, some packages require some sort of kernel to be installed as a dependency last I checked. Or am I missing something? Dale :-) :-)
