From the man page of emerge:
| Code: | /var/cache/edb/world
Contains a list of all user-specified packages. You can safely
edit this file, adding packages that you want to be considered
in world class updates and removing those that you do not want
to be considered. |
Of course, if one of the packages showing up is a dependency for another package you do wish to update, it's going to show up anyway. Good luck!
