What does a normal 'emerge -ep system' look like on x86 with a 2005.0 profile? Just now I saw someone mention having 158 packages in system. Here I have only 103:
# emerge -ep system | grep ebuild | wc -l 103 But when I do an 'emerge --depclean -p' it ends with: Packages installed: 406 Packages in world: 105 Packages in system: 62 Unique package names: 403 Required packages: 417 Number to remove: 3 Only 62 packages in system? Okay, maybe only the basic packages count, not the ones they depend on: # emerge -ept system | grep ebuild | grep -v '] ' | wc -l 27 Hmm! Where does the 62 come from? # emerge -ept system | grep ebuild | grep -v '] ' [ebuild N ] sys-devel/bin86-0.16.17 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/hdparm-5.7-r1 [ebuild N ] sys-libs/pwdb-0.62 [ebuild N ] net-misc/openssh-3.9_p1-r2 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/module-init-tools-3.0-r2 [ebuild N ] app-editors/nano-1.3.4 [ebuild N ] sys-fs/udev-056 [ebuild N ] sys-devel/make-3.80-r1 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/shadow-4.0.5-r3 [ebuild N ] sys-process/psmisc-21.5 [ebuild N ] sys-process/procps-3.2.4-r3 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/net-tools-1.60-r11 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/man-pages-2.01 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/less-382-r2 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/kbd-1.12-r3 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/findutils-4.1.20-r1 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/ed-0.2-r6 [ebuild N ] net-misc/wget-1.9.1-r3 [ebuild N ] net-misc/rsync-2.6.0-r4 [ebuild N ] net-misc/iputils-021109-r3 [ebuild N ] app-shells/sash-3.7 [ebuild N ] app-arch/tar-1.15.1 [ebuild N ] app-arch/gzip-1.3.5-r5 [ebuild N ] app-arch/bzip2-1.0.2-r5 [ebuild N ] sys-libs/libstdc++-v3-3.3.4 [ebuild N ] x11-terms/xterm-200-r1 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/man-1.5p Apart from the exact version numbers, is this normal?
