I'm running Gentoo as my distribution on my webserver. A few months ago
during a routine update, xterm shows up on my list of updates along with
a bunch of X libraries including xorg. I have "-X" in my use flags.
And if I look at the tree view of the emerge world it doesn't have any
thing above it (it's not a dependency on something else I emerged). I
don't want xterm on an X-less machine. Could this be a bug in the
ebuild? Is there any way to look a little deeper at why this is coming
up in my emerge world?
equery depends x11-term/xterm
grep x11 /var/lib/portage/world
esearch -c -F -nc x11 | grep '^..I'
Thanks for showing some shell commands. Here's the output...
# equery depends x11-term/xterm
[ Searching for packages depending on x11-term/xterm... ]
# grep x11 /var/lib/portage/world
# esearch -c -F -nc x11 | grep '^..I'
This tells me:
- I don't have anything that depends on xterm.
- I don't have anything in my world file related to x11.
- I don't have anything currently installed related to x11.
But xterm is still trying to get installed. Is this a Gentoo bug?
