Hi all, I have a few packages listed in /var/lib/portage/world that I was wondering whether they needed to be in there? Thanks in advance,
1) Emulation stuff app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-java app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-qtlibs Nothing seems to depend on them. Can I remove them? lightning ~ # equery depends emul-linux-x86-java [ Searching for packages depending on emul-linux-x86-java... ] lightning ~ # equery depends emul-linux-x86-qtlibs [ Searching for packages depending on emul-linux-x86-qtlibs... ] lightning ~ # 2) Java stuff: dev-java/sun-jdk dev-java/sun-jdk:1.5 dev-java/sun-jdk:1.6 dev-java/sun-jre-bin jre AND jdk? Are both necessary? And are both Java 1.5 & 1.6 required these days? I'm not sure how to figure that out with any certainty. 3) Fonts. I suppose font packages are just a choice? Load however many I want? I have a bunch on the machine. I'm not concerned about disk space. I can leave everything. Just cleaning up if there's a good reason. Thanks, Mark
