Hi, Recently I noticed an inconsistency between the behavior of 'emerge -n' and the advise shown while executing 'emerge --depclean'.
emerge --depclean -pv ===snip Also study the list of packages to be cleaned for any obvious mistakes. Packages that are part of the world set will always be kept. They can be manually added to this set with `emerge --noreplace <atom>`. ===snip But: ===quote localhost ~ # grep python /var/lib/portage/world ###(<--No result) localhost ~ # emerge --noreplace dev-lang/python Calculating dependencies ..... ..... ..... ... done! >>> Auto-cleaning packages... >>> No outdated packages were found on your system. * GNU info directory index is up-to-date. localhost ~ # grep python /var/lib/portage/world ###(<--Still no result) localhost ~ # ===quote Is this the normal behavior of portage or there's something wrong with my installation? -- Best regards, Daniel -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
