Thanks Dale. > I found that in man eclean. I'm sorry, I didn't consider a parameter like that for some reason. Should it be alright to depclean every day? As long as I use --time-limit with 'eclean packages', I should be able to reinstall anything that depclean removes even if it's pruned from Portage. - Grant
