I can think of three options: |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
1) Create a set (if using portage 2.2). Add each of the packages |
| 23 |
to /etc/portage/sets/depsforF then emerge -n @depsforF. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
2) quickpkg B C D E - then it doesn't matter if they are unmerged them |
| 26 |
as you can quickly re-emerge them with the -k option. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
3) Don't run emerge --depclean until you have resolved this issue. |

How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a |

good idea to put wheels on luggage? |
