Ideally you only want the applications you actually use directly in |
7 |
your world file, and let portage solve the dependencies for those. If |
8 |
you really need to emerge a library installed by hand use 'emerge |
9 |
--oneshot' so it doesn't get added to the world file. I would bet |
10 |
glibc is already in the @system set or pulled as a dependency for |
11 |
that. so yes remove it from your world. |

Choose the applications from your world file and "emerge --deselect" |
18 |
everything else, this wont uninstall anything, just delete some lines |
19 |
from the world file. |

From my own experience, you could get portage to show errors of 100+ |
22 |
lines for not having a proper world file(and some stupid stuff in |
23 |
package.accept_keywords), and untangle those is not fun at all. |
