Another item: an automated dependency checker.
It would build a file->package database from /var/db/pkg and update it
whenever a request for a non-registered file is made.
It would run ldd on all dynamic exes in CONTENTS of a requested package, find
which packages the linked libraries were from and list the packages.
With an interface to portage.py, it could caculate the DEPEND of the ebuild
and list missed deps.
Also, maybe this Subterfuge can make a list of programs called by the ebuild
during emerge (make, gcc, ld, perl, whatever) and look those up too.
