[gentoo-user] How to remove a package from a profile?

[Ста Деюс]

Hi.


Is it possible to remove a package from a profile? -- I try to remove
absolutely unnecessary to me openssh package from default/linux/x86
profile that beside each time necessity to compile, just reduces system
security. So, i did mask it, having created an openssh file
in /etc/portage/packages.mask dir. Removed already installed package
from the system and then tried to update the system. -- Openssh is
enlisted to be compiled/installed among other packages! So, what's the
recipe here?


Thank you for your time,
Sthu.
