Results may vary, but the general outcome is a reduced or condensed
output from portage's displays.
.TP
+.BR "\-\-rdeps\-only"
+Discard all build\-time dependencies. This option is commonly used together
+with \fBROOT\fR and it should not be enabled under normal circumstances. For
+currently supported \fBEAPI\fR values, the dependencies specified in the
+\fBDEPEND\fR variable are discarded. However, behavior may change for new
+\fBEAPI\fRs when related extensions are added in the future.
+.TP
.BR "\-\-reinstall changed\-use"
Tells emerge to include installed packages where USE flags have
changed since installation. Unlike \fB\-\-newuse\fR, this option does
not trigger reinstallation when flags that the user has not
enabled are added or removed.
.TP
+.BR "\-\-root\-deps"
+Install build\-time dependencies to \fBROOT\fR instead of /. This option
+should not be enabled under normal circumstances. For currently supported
+\fBEAPI\fR values, the dependencies specified in the \fBDEPEND\fR variable
+are used. However, behavior may change for new
+\fBEAPI\fRs when related extensions are added in the future.
+.TP
.BR "\-\-skipfirst"
This option is only valid when used with \fB\-\-resume\fR. It removes the
first package in the resume list. Dependencies are recalculated for
