It's also good to use -t --unordered-display to see what pulls what and
resolve potential issues.

Then --keep-going so the whole thing doesn't fail just because one
package fails.

Then -k to use already built binary packages where applicable
(Actually, I'm not sure why this sometimes gets activated but I see it
from time to time)

Why do you run the the --width-bdeps=y ?
