But ... I actually have packages that depend on scrnsaverproto: matica!524 ~# equery d scrnsaverproto * These packages depend on scrnsaverproto: x11-base/xorg-server-1.19.5-r1 (>=x11-proto/scrnsaverproto-1.1) x11-libs/libXScrnSaver-1.2.2-r1 (>=x11-proto/scrnsaverproto-1.2.2-r1[abi_x86_32(-)?,abi_x86_64(-)?,abi_x86_x32(-)?,abi_mips_n32(-)?,abi_mips_n64(-)?,abi_mips_o32(-)?,abi_ppc_32(-)?,abi_ppc_64(-)?,abi_s390_32(-)?,abi_s390_64(-)?]) x11-misc/xautolock-2.2_p5_p1 (x11-proto/scrnsaverproto) x11-misc/xssstate-1.1 (x11-proto/scrnsaverproto) So I have to unmerge xautolock and xssstate too? That will be painful because they're baked deep into my X configuration. I think it will require a trip to the Linux console :-P -- Please don't Cc: me privately on mailing lists and Usenet, if you also post the followup to the list or newsgroup.
