If you look at the ebuild
('less /usr/portage/app-admin/gamin/gamin-0.1.7.ebuild'), you'll
see that gamin provides the virtual fam.
$ equery depends fam
[ Searching for packages depending on fam... ]
gnome-base/gnome-vfs-2.12.2
But there are several other packages that depend on fam when the fam
USE flag is set, among them kdelibs.
You can also do an 'emerge -pet world | less', and look under what
package gamin sits.

It is used to observe whether files have changed. Quite useful when
you happen to pull out files from under Kate. If you don't need it,
drop the fam USE flag.
