That's because something on your system depends on cvs. This is not a
problem, programs hat need cvs will use cvs, those that want subversion
will use that. Instaling both does no harm.
I just was to get rid of cvs since I'm not using it. How do I find
what depends on it?
This one is resolved. After doing and emerge --search cvs there were
two cvs packages installed: cvs and colorcvs. When I did and emerge -C
cvs and then emerge -uDNp world, cvs was back in the list to get
installed again. After doing an emerge -C colorcvs the cvs package
didn't show up in the emerge -uDNp world list.
For future reference, emerge has a --tree (-t) option to show what
packages are pulling in others.
