I did
  emerge --verbose --ask --deep --update --newuse --tree world

and received the output below.  The funny thing is that  the same
emerge previously reinstalled emacs and some others just a few days
ago.  I don't see from the (verbose) output given why the reinstalls
are triggered.  Any help in understanding would be appreciated.

thanks,
allan
