[gentoo-user] New dependencies suddenly popping up

2014-01-21 Thread Peter Humphrey
Hello list, After my daily sync today, portage wanted to emerge two new packages: dev- libs/lzo and x11-misc/makedepend. No other packages were mentioned. Odd, I thought, so: $ equery d lzo * These packages depend on lzo: [...] X11-libs/cairo-1.12.14-r4 (dev-libs/lzo) $ equery d makedepend *

[gentoo-user] tmpfs for portage: how much?
