Hi everybody, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I'm trying to clean my install (one year old, so it's time to do it). I run an |
| 4 |
update, and run : |
| 5 |
emerge --newuse -Dvu world |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
It installs a lot of update and so on and do everything ok. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Afterwards, I run : |
| 10 |
revdep-rebuild |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
It makes a lot of rebuild about some broken link, I also uninstall so useless |
| 13 |
software and/or lib. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Now, I'm quite sure everything is correctly linked, since runing emerge --newuse |
| 16 |
-Dvu world or revdep-rebuild answers : << nothing has to be done >>. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Now I try the dangerous following command as describe in the documentation : |
| 19 |
emerge --depclean -p (just to see what should be done) |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
And then I'm quite surprise, 41 packages should be removed, and among them, a |
| 22 |
lot of usefull lib or tool (perl-ldap, xinetd, and so on ...) |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Is this result normal ? What did I miss ? |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Thank by advance about this your help. |
