Hello Grant, Another system wants to unmerge a bunch of crucial stuff with --depclean, including: x11-base/xorg-x11 selected: 7.1 protected: none omitted: none x11-apps/xdm selected: 1.0.5 protected: none omitted: none Manually put both in: /var/lib/portage/world file (backup it, just in case). Seems you had virtual/x11 which pulled all dependencies, but not anymore. I don't understand why they weren't depended on by gdm and (for example) firefox which are in my world file. Because they are not required by those programs. xorg-x11 has been split, so you probably have xorg-server and various library and utility packages installed. Firefox doesn't require an X server at all because it can be run remotely. The simplest option it to quickpkg the affected packages before allowing --depclean to remove them. If anything breaks, you can reinstall them in seconds. -- Neil Bothwick You have a tendency to feel you are superior to most computers. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
