Hi there!

Any idea why emerge --depclean wants to remove
app-shells/bash-completion-config? It it needed by some installed
packages:

app-editors/vim-7.0.235 (bash-completion?
app-shells/bash-completion-config)

app-shells/bash-completion-config)
dev-util/subversion-1.3.2-r4 (bash-completion?
app-shells/bash-completion-config)

I have the bash-completion USE flag set, so why does emerge --depclean
want to remove this package? I also tried dep -a -d
(from app-portage/udept), it also wants to remove it.

My system is up to date, I did emerge -NuD world and revdep-rebuild.

This is no big problem of course, I am just curious and would like to
understand what is going on.




I don't know any of the details, but I can report this: my system is also
clean,
has the bash-completion USE flag, and does _not_ have the bash-completion
package installed.  Everything seems to work just fine.

Moreover, I use the bash themes from Linux Journal of a year or so ago,
which relies heavily on the complete builtin.

So you have to ask yourself what capability are you missing that you want?

Apparently you didn't have the bash-completion enabled on those
packages when you installed them.  Look at the output of `emerge -pv
app-editors/vim` and you will be able to see if reinstalling the
package causes the flag to change state.  The symbols in the USE
flag display are documented with the --verbose option in `man emerge`.
