Sometimes depclean will remove something world will emerge again. I want to be on the save side for those cases. Anyway I also seem to have orphan packages not found by depclean but not updated by emerge -DuavN world My Post (german): http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-685418-highlight-.html I would be interested to hear about your outcomes to compare the (update)result from you when comparing: emerge -DuavN world emerge -aev world emerge -DuavN --with-bdeps y world To see if some package is needed by anything you might run equery depends KH Michael Schmarck wrote: > Alan McKinnon wrote: > > >> On Tuesday 08 April 2008, Michael Schmarck wrote: >> >>> Connected question: How do I quickly find all the packages that >>> got installed as a dependency, but which are no longer needed, >>> because the dependent package got removed (as an example, I'd >>> like to find kde-i18n, because that used to be a dependency of >>> kde-meta and kde-meta is no longer installed). >>> >> emerge --depclean >> > > thanks. 200 some packages, which would be removed.
