I forgot Neil had told me to periodically remove this file:: /etc/portage/package.use/zzz-autounmask and I cleaned out package.unmask from autounmask that inserted systemd flag requirements. emerge -uDvtp @world shows just a few updates needed but nothing pulling in systemd. What I'm missing is why the "-systemd" setting in make.conf did not overrule these missteps? Is there way to set something, anything anywhere what no packages with require systemd can be installed. I never contiously overrode that concern. It is my overwhelming concern. NO systemd. All else is optional. Where's that setting? James
