If it is removing to much, leave out the -d option. With -d, it only |
| 25 |
leaves the minimum needed to re-emerge the packages currently |
| 26 |
installed. It works the same way with -dist as well. From the man page: |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
-d, --deep only keep the minimum for a reinstallation |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
I think if you leave off the -d option it leaves anything that is still |
| 31 |
in the tree, may include overlays as well. |
