It's rather annoying that you can't use ebuild unpack without filling all
dependencies. Could this check be done when you do ebuild compile/install instead.

this *is* annoying and I think it should be fixed before Portage 1.0.  A
"polish" feature.  Portage also has a tendency to check digests way too often if
you do an "ebuild foo.ebuild clean unpack compile..."

This is now fixed on CVS.  unpack should no longer trigger a dep check.
