[gentoo-user] no ebuilds available, how to unmerge them ?

Hi all,

   I found that two of my ebuilds are lost, and it's probably depricated or
renamed in portage.
I checked the packages.gentoo.org, they are also missing.


# emaint --check world
Checking world for problems

'x11-plugins/desklet-psisensors' has no ebuilds available
'app-emacs/mule-gbk' has no ebuilds available


Finished


Even I know the latest emacs doesn't need mule-gbk, I can not even unmerge
them, because I don't have ebuild.

How to fix this problem ?

Thanks

Lingyun

What do you mean with that? You don't need the ebuild
to unmerge it - and actually you still have it
in /var/db/pkg/$category/$pkg/$pkg-$version.ebuild, eg.
/var/db/pkg/x11-plugins/desklet-psisensors/desklet-psisensors*.ebuild

But, as I said, you don't need the ebuild. You can
unmerge it by running:

emerge -C app-emacs/mule-gbk x11-plugins/desklet-psisensors

Hi Alex,

Thanks a lot, *emerge -C* does help!

I only tried *emerge unmerge*.

--unmerge (-C short option)

I think that emerge unmerge and emerge -C are completly the same...
