Re: [gentoo-user] How many automake?

2007-10-19 Thread ??????

try this:
emerge --clean automake

Scrolling my package db I found I have installed many automakes. 
Here is the list:


drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 664 16 ott 10:36 automake-1.10
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 936  9 feb  2006 automake-1.4_p6
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 936  9 feb  2006 automake-1.5
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 936  9 feb  2006 automake-1.6.3
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 936  9 feb  2006 automake-1.7.9-r1
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 936  9 feb  2006 automake-1.8.5-r3
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 936  9 feb  2006 automake-1.9.6-r1

Should it be possible to unmerge the older ones?

I believe that automake is only needed at build time, not at runtime, so 
you could unmerge all of them and have the system work. Of course, the 
next time you emerged practically anything, it would have to build an 
automake. Also, the reason you have so many installed is that they're not 
generally compatible with each other. Various packages require different 
versions in order to build correctly, and a bunch of magic in portage 
deals with this. On the other hand, you probably won't need all of those 
versions. If you do:

emerge --depclean automake

It'll unmerge some of them (at a guess, 1.4_p6 and 1.9.6-r1, if not 
others). If you include --verbose, it'll tell you what packages wanted 
each version.

actually, removing them is a bad idea, because you need all these versions
