For instance: # emerge -pvu icu > pkg_list.txt which triggers many rebuilds due to slop operator dependencies. I would expect to use --rebuild-exclude to be able to modify the previous list but the following command # emerge -pvu --rebuild-exclude app-office/libreoffice icu returns the same list of packages.
