Hi --- Is there a way to print all of the installed programs by |
2 |
category. I would like to know what development libraries and tools are |
3 |
installed and also what is installed that I never use. |
4 |
|
5 |
Basically I want to remove everything not in use so that another upgrade |
6 |
will take less time. Once I remove a program, library, or something |
7 |
else, how will I know that there will be no affected dependencies. |
8 |
|
9 |
Also is there something which will reveal that an executable or library |
10 |
has never been used or infrequently used. |
11 |
|
12 |
I have not installed many packages outside the portage sandbox. Most |
13 |
packages that were installed outside portage were installed in a |
14 |
non-portage area within usr. |

Note: Why are there administration, laptop, and server related posts at |
19 |
gentoo-user and less at gentoo-admin or the other ones? The amount of |
20 |
emails at gentoo-user is too high volume IMO. |
21 |
|
22 |
Why not remove gentoo-user and instead add more lists like |
23 |
gentoo-install, or whatever else. The gentoo-user list is misleading |
24 |
since every user using gentoo is a user. It should be removed instead. |
