1 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:

32 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:

40 -kerberos +libg++ +nls +pam +perl -pg-hier -pg-intdatetime +python
41 +readline (-selinux) +ssl -tcltk +xml2 +zlib 0 kB

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

45 Thanks in advance.
