 You got to much time on your hands.  You need better things to do.  lol

When maintaining a Gentoo system, little and often usually take less time
in the ling run. I get emailed the results of eix-test-obsolete,
revdep-rebuild -p  and a couple of other checks from each computer each
week. Most weeks I just scan the mails and move on as nothing is
reported. Occasionally I remove a line or two from /etc/portage/*, which
is far less work than trying to decipher the mess after leaving it for
several months.

 Be prepared for a LONG list tho.  It prints a LOT on mine.

That just means you have a lot of cleaning up to do :P

True but if the OP hasn't cleaned his before, he may very well have a 
lot of cleaning to do as well.  I clean mine every few months and it 
still has some size to the output.  It just depends on how much as went 
stable since adding a package to one or more of those files.


It is handy tho.  I'm glad someone wrote that little program.

[gentoo-user] remove unneeded package.keywords entries

2010-02-05 Thread Crístian Viana
hi,

I'd like to remove unneeded entries on package.keywords and I was wondering
if there's some program to do that (or if it's a good idea for me to try to
do it :) ). for example, I may have:

=www-client/mozilla-firefox-3.6

but later (hopefully) this package will be unmasked and that entry becomes
totally useless. and I may also unmask an ebuild without a version, and some
time later this ebuild will have no keyworded version, so that
package.keywords entry will be useless too.

see you,

This should work.

eix-test-obsolete

Be prepared for a LONG list tho.  It prints a LOT on mine.  I would also 
recommend you save a copy of those files just in case.


Hope that helps.
