[gentoo-user] problems with emerge -C packet

[Markus Fendt]

Hi,

I'm working in a chroot environment

I want to deinstall a package. So i do emerge -C man (for example)
No Error output.

Then the binary man is still there on my system?

On your system ABOVE the chroot - your PRIMARY system - the one you
BOOTED into - yes. The binary will still be there, if it was there before you
issued that command.

The unmerge command will remove the package files only from your chrooted
directory. I assume you did nothing 'strange' like chrooting into / or
binding /var or /bin into your chooted environment... ?
:-)

I hope it's the answer you're looking for.
