Thanks Spider and Mark. I tried emerge -Cp gnome and got this result -------------------------------------------------------- emerge -Cp gnome >>> These are the packages that I would unmerge: !!! Couldn't find match for gnome >>> unmerge: No packages selected for removal. --------------------------------------------------------- However, after doing a emerge depclean (made sure not unmerging anything that I knew of being used) there's no more gnome stuff in emerge -Up world. I still might have something broken, will check it later tonight. Regards R'twick May be I have broken something -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
