I always run emerge -pvuD world to check updates, then sudo emerge -quD world to update my Gentoo. Sometimes, I would see packages showing up but I couldn’t understand why they were pulled for update. Here is a case:
chromium package is no doubt that it needs to be updated since it’s in world (rendered in bold style). But for eventlog, you would not think it’s a dependency of Chromium; and for librsvg, it’s not one because it’d be updated after Chromium.
So, why do they show up? After reading the man page, --tree (or -t) option would tell you the reason.
