Howdy,

I suspect there may be more people than me wondering about this one.  I
have quite a few entries in /etc/portage files, especially keywords. 
I'd like to know if there is a tool that deletes no longer needed
entries itself.  I been using eix-test-obsolete but doing it manually
can take quite a while.  Is there a tool that I can run and it clean out
those files itself instead of me doing it one line at a time?  I figure
there has to be someone out there that has already done this, surely. 

Anyone have any info on such a beast? 

Thanks much.

Hi Dale,

    You're looking for enalyze from app-portage/gentoolkit.
    Have a look in the manual, ENALYZE(1) for usage.

DESCRIPTION
       Enalyze  is  a collection of modules for analyzing the state of installed Gentoo packages for USE flags or
       keywords used for installation, and their current masking status.
       It can also optionally (re)generate new /etc/portage/package.* files.

Kind Regards,
-Camisa

That looks veeeerrryyyy interesting.  That just may be what I need.  It seems to do it backwards from what I was expecting but I'll give it a shot, once I read how to use it.  ;-)

Thanks much.
