- From man emerge:
       --update (-u)
              Updates  packages  to the best version available, which may not always be the highest
version number due to masking for testing and development.  This will also update direct
dependencies which may not be  what  you  want.   Package  atoms specified  on the command line are
greedy, meaning that unspecific atoms may match multiple installed versions of slot-ted packages.

You can use --nodeps, too, so you only update the specific package, with no deps.
