You should see the KDE and GNOMe meta-packages, but not the individual pacakges, but, as I said, it is totally tested. > To do the depclean -p step I'd need to take the output of this and > place it at the world file location I presume? The output of depclean -p is too verbose for that, and would put *everything* back in world anyway. Look at the output and copy ther packages you know you need back in. the rest will be no longer needed dependencies that can be removed. As always, it's best to run "emerge world -uavD" and "revdep-rebuild -p" after a depclean, just to be safe. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
