It depends on is there any package relying on x11-libs/fox.

Checkout by using `equery d x11-libs/fox-1.7.39`.

Or you can checkout that with `emerge -DNuav @world` and `revdep-rebuild`,
these commands will check for any unsatisfied dependencies.

emerge -cpv x11-libs/fox will ell you if anything depends on it. Chances
are it is a build time dependency of a package, which means portage won't
bother updating it until that package needs updating, unless you use
--with-build-deps=y.
