14 These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order:

16 Calculating world dependencies ...done!

30 Okay, so "tls" is the package that I emerged. Aha! Now I remember. Thank
31 you! Now the only problem is I originally emerged it like this:
32
33 # emerge -va --nodeps dev-tcltk/tls
34
35 I actually need that package (some things depend on it), yet not all of the
36 cruft that follows. The app that uses it requires it, but works fine even
37 without tk. Is it possible to cut the rest out?
38
39 I suppose I could unmerge it, then install it by hand, but this is Gentoo.
40 There has to be a better way. Any suggestions?
41
42 Thanks for the help!
