In preparation for cleaning my world file, I ran emerge -p --depclean
world. It listed these packages to be removed:
app-crypt/gpgme
app-crypt/opencdk
app-text/rman
dev-libs/libtasn1
dev-libs/lzo
dev-python/pyxml
gnome-base/gail
net-libs/gnutls
net-libs/libsoup
perl-core/Storable
perl-core/Test-Simple
sys-devel/bc
virtual/x11
x11-apps/sessreg
x11-apps/ttmkfdir
x11-apps/xcursorgen
x11-apps/xdm
x11-apps/xdriinfo
x11-base/opengl-update
x11-libs/libFS
x11-libs/libXTrap
x11-libs/libXevie
x11-libs/libXprintAppUtil
x11-libs/libXprintUtil
x11-libs/libXvMC
x11-libs/liboldX
x11-themes/gentoo-xcursors
x11-themes/gnome-themes
x11-themes/gtk-engines
x11-themes/xcursor-themes
Obviously many, if not most of them are needed. Remove virtual/x11??????
I noticed that many of them are dependencies of virtual/x11 so I added
that to my world file, re-ran the --depclean and this time got only
about half the recommendations. Was adding virtual/x11 to my world file
the proper thing to do? Wonder why it wasn't there in the first place?
