I have a networkless box that I've gentoo installed on. I grabbed the

world and system on my networked machine to try and fetch every possible
file needed to install my world and system programs. Then I tarred the
distfiles directory which was about 2.5GB and dumped it
into /usr/portage/ on my networkless box. When installing certain
programs on my networkless pc; It complains about not being able to
fetch some package dependencies. Is there an emerge option/switch that I can use to make sure I fetch every possible depedency/package for every
package in my world and system set.

Networkless box:
   $ emerge -fpv world > foo.txt

Sneaker foo.txt to networked box and:
$ for foo in foo.txt ; do wget -c -nc -P /usr/portage/distfiles/ $foo ; done

Should approximately do the trick.
