Hi,
how can I list all packages INCLUDING those, which
are not installed on my system, which depend on a
certain package (in my case: dev-libs/boosy) ?
I tried
emerge d dev-libs/boost
but nothing was found...
Thank you very much in advance for any help!
best regards,
mcc

Try `eix --depend dev-libs/boost`. The results might not match your
particular USE flags or other factors. Read `man eix` for details. Also,
that are only direct dependencies.

In addition to what Florian mentioned theres also
equery depends -a boost
albeit a bit slower.
