Lately I've been having program updating my system with portage. emerge -uU system works just fine, but emerge -uU world wants to downgrade certain programs, upgrade "pinned" programs, and install gnome components even though I specified the "-gnome" use flag. Here's some of the output...
Code:

emerge -puU world

[ebuild    U ] media-video/mplayer-0.90 [0.90_rc5]
...
[ebuild    U ] app-text/ghostscript-7.05.6-r1 [7.05.5-r2]
...
[ebuild    U ] gnome-base/bonobo-activation-2.2.1.1 [2.2.1]
[ebuild    U ] gnome-base/libbonobo-2.2.1 [2.2.0]
[ebuild    U ] gnome-base/gnome-vfs-2.2.4 [2.2.3]
[ebuild    U ] gnome-base/gnome-desktop-2.2.1-r1 [2.2.1]
[ebuild  N   ] gnome-base/gnome-panel-2.2.1 
...
[ebuild  N   ] gnome-base/gail-1.2.0 
[ebuild  N   ] gnome-base/eel-2.2.3 
[ebuild  N   ] gnome-base/nautilus-2.2.3 
[ebuild  N   ] gnome-base/libgnomeprint-2.2.1.2 
[ebuild  N   ] x11-libs/libzvt-2.0.1-r2 
[ebuild  N   ] gnome-base/libgnomeprintui-2.2.1.2 
[ebuild  N   ] gnome-extra/libgtkhtml-2.2.3

Apperantly some of the gnome stuff needs to be UPDATED, so that means I was stupid enough to let it get installed anyway. Is it possible to find which installed program needs gnome stuff, maybe I can get rid of it. mplayer and ghostscript are set to certain versions (since I can't get ghostscript-7.05.6-r1 to compile)
Code:

/var/cache/edb/world

=app-text/ghostscript-7.05.5-r2
=media-video/mplayer-0.90_rc5

Any ideas?

Sometimes gnome stuff sneaks in with gtk flags. to see what flags are being reported to emerge try
Code:
emerge -pUv world


Note: you don't really need -u as it is implied by -U, the -v flag will display the USE flags used by the ebuild and what state they are in in make.conf (+ for set, - for not set). You might see a +gtk or +gtk2, which colud be responsible for the gnome-stuff.

To find out what packages depend on a given package use
Code:
qpkg -q <package>-<ver>


If you don't have qpkg already emerge gentoolkit.
