I have a cron job on my system which runs emerge --sync && emerge -uDf |
2 |
world early in the hours of the morning, so that each day I can login, |
3 |
run emerge -uDp world and if I'm satisfied with what's about to be |
4 |
updated I can upgrade straight away without having to wait for time |
5 |
consuming syncs or downloads. However, this morning I woke up to the |
6 |
following output from emerge -uDp world: |

Calculating world dependencies ...done! |

Given that my USE flags include -X, -gtk, -qt etc. (I don't want any |
33 |
graphical stuff as this is a server machine, and I've never had |
34 |
anything like this come up before), why on earth is portage wanting to |
35 |
install all these new packages? The only thing I can think of is that |
36 |
the dependancies for postgresql have somehow changed, running emerge |
37 |
-uDpv postgresql throws up most of what is shown above plus: |

Have I done something wrong, or has something changed in portage? |

Thanks in advance. |
