28 I think (didn't look into it at any depth) that pidgin draws in net-
29 libs/libnice (because of XMPP?) and libnice has the upnp flag which draws in
30 net-libs/gupnp-igd. I unmerged gupnp and this is what I get:
31
32 # emerge -uaDtv world
33
34 These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

36 Calculating dependencies... done!

49 Interestingly, I do *not* have farsight installed, but I had installed connman
50 to try it with enlightenment (econnman).

52 [I] net-misc/connman
