I am new to gentoo and i don't know if what i think is a problem it really is.
But�for example when i want to download �midnight commander i am typing something like this

I think you have "+X" in your USE flags.


when i want to download samba using emerge it downloads something like jpeg and tiff libraries

I suspect there are pulled in for to meet a CUPS Xfree dependency. Again, USE "-X" should resolve this.


what wrong am i doin' ??

You're not using the "--pretend --verbose" flags to `emerge` - these give you the opportunity to tune your USE flags.


I suggest:
  $ emerge -s ufed
  $ emerge -pv ufed
  $ sudo emerge ufed
 �$ sudo /usr/sbin/ufed
  $ emerge -pv mc
  $ emerge -pv samba
&c &c

or what's wrong with my dependencies ??

Nothing. You're just using the default USE flags.
