I have buildpkg in make.conf. Isn't that the same thing?
Not exactly, but more than close enough for this. I use buildpkg
Hi,
On occasion I get a bit of cruft on my system. So I do the emerge -Pp
world to see what can be removed. I wanted some opinions on this list:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] / # emerge -Pp world
These are the packages that would be unmerged:
app-text/docbook-sgml-dtd
selected: 4.4 4.1-r3

I know to be careful with some things, gcc, autoconf and such but what

Or you could quickpkg them all and unmerge the lot in one go
The easy way to do this is
emerge -C -p --depclean | grep '^ .*/' 1 | xargs quickpkg
emerge --depclean

Not exactly, but more than close enough for this. I use buildpkg too, it
can save a lot of time and some
