I don't think --with-bdeps will solve this issue as qt- packages are no build-time-dependencies they are needed at runtime too. Did the affected packages got installed by your previous emerge world command. My guess is that depclean wants to remove this packages because they are simply not needed by other packages. Did they really get pulled in when doing another world update after removing the packages? Maybe checking again your world file or the files in /etc/portage/package.* for something suspicious is a good idea here. -- Regards, Daniel
