The simplest way to do that, with any package you want to remove, is to |
| 8 |
use |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
emerge --depclean --ask -v cat/pkg |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
instead of |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
emerge --unmerge --ask cat/pkg |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
With depclean, dependencies are checked and the package will only be |
| 17 |
removed if nothing depends on it. Adding the -v shows you what depends on |
| 18 |
it. |

By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends. |
