Heh...can you even imagine how horrible it would be to try and uninstall
kde if 400 packages were scattered around the whole portage tree? I
don't even want to think about that. With everything in one category,
you could just "cd /var/db/pkg/kde-base/kde<blah>/ ; emerge -C *"


Sounds like GNOME... I still regret when I installed it a few months ago to
give it yet another chance to be usable...



Whats the big deal? -- just emerge -C gnome && emerge depclean. As long as you didnt emerge every package manually (in which case you should deal with them manually) it will remove all packages provided by the gnome metapackage if no other package depends on them.



It happen often between the users to have depclean unmerge *important* packages
admited that user know what is essential for his system live
if he/she forgot to "emerge --noreplace baselayout-like-here" manually
doing an "emerge depclean -p" looking at 150 packages is sad a bit
