I guess I disagree. I don't think any beginner needs a massively complex 
script which they don't understand...

A couple of notes on the script, however. If you wrote the script then I 
suggest that you google a bit for "useless use of cat". The script does a 
*lot* of that.. IMHO the script is pretty ugly in general but I guess that 
isn't the most important thing.

Worth noting also is that `equery depends` is pretty broken. It gives false 
positives and it only works for installed packages. I think pquery from 
sys-apps/pkgcore would be a better choice although I obviously haven't tested 
it for this purpose.
