ad 1) if u install manually the configure will probably complan about dependencies, u can try however, i do this sometimes when the dependencies are too strict to my liking. u can also modify the ebuild scipt itself /usr/portage/... but this can really break some things, be sure that u know what u are doing...

ad 2) see above and: it depends very much on the program u try to install. usually u need the other programs (they <hint>DEPEND<\hint> on it)

best advice i can provide: if u dont like the way portage handles the package, grab the sources and do a manual installation
