The above output totally doesn't show that "emerge -uDN misses out some updates" -> marking INVALID. (And no, app-text/texlive-core is NOT an update to app-text/tetex, it's an entirely different package.)
I know about tetex and texlive. You might have noticed that I didn't have tetex installed, while it was needed by epydoc. I believe this shows that "emerge -uDN misses out some updates".
