| The world target only uses what's in your world file (/var/cache/edb/world). The world file only contains programs you directly emerged, not dependencies. If you directly emerge grub, the world file will contain it, and from that point on you will have no problems. This problem only really happens when you have a program installed which nothing in your world file, or dependencies of that, depends on. |

If you 'emerge grub', it will join your world file.
What you could do is compare a list of /var/db/pkg/*/* (given by qpkg -I -v) to emerge -puD world, and see what's different. |
