Mmm, there's a slightly weird side effect of that: Let's say you have db:4.3 installed because it's a dep of something, and don't have db in world. If you do paludis -i everything, db:4.5 will get pulled in, but nothing actually uses it, so it'll then show up in --uninstall-unused. The solution would maybe be to have an everything-with-slots, which would include db:4.3 rather than db:4.5. But there're two problems with that. Firstly, if a new KDE release comes out in a new slot, it won't show up. Secondly, if old slots get removed but you keep them around anyway (see kernel sources on Gentoo), it'll barf. So the 'everything' set probably isn't a very good idea. -- Ciaran McCreesh
