[gentoo-dev] emerge debug mode

[gentoo-dev] emerge debug mode

[Andrew Gaffney]

Is there a way to run emerge in a debug mode to see where it is getting 
its dependencies? I'm trying to figure out what package I have installed 
that is trying to bring back a bunch of gnome programs and libs that I 
unmerged last night. Before unmerging each of them, I made sure with 
'qpkg -q -nc -I pkgname' that nothing depended on them.

grep for gnome in the DEPEND and RDEPEND files in /var/db/pkg

Thank you. This looks like exactly what I was looking for. I found 15 
packages or so that were built with the 'gnome' flag that I'm rebuilding 
now.

Now if only I could find a replacement for gnome-terminal :)

how about eterm, or if your new window manager of choice has tabs, xterm / aterm.

 From suggestions on -user, I'm trying Konsole for now.

I just switched to KDE, and Konsole is a pretty good replacement for
Gnome-Terminal. If anything, it's better in some areas.

aterm is a -very- good terminal, and suffers far less from flashyness of
eterm.

cat ~/.Xdefaults:
Aterm*loginShell:       true
Aterm*reverseVideo:     false
Aterm*transparent:      true
Aterm*scrollBar:        false

how about emerge --debug ? That makes portage very verbose.

I read in 'emerge --help' that it makes *ebuild* very verbose, not emerge.
