I don't think so. "cfgpro" means the modules are *not* removed on unmerge. Have a look, they should still be there. At least, they are on my machines, although I don't use module-rebuild but a custom script (a one-liner, actually). I have always had the messages as you describe above, and the modules have always stayed around. If they don't, then something is wrong with your configuration. It's kinda the same as /etc on unmerge. The files just stick around. -- Remy Remove underscore and suffix in reply address for a timely response. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
