Depclean is to remove packages that are no longer in or a dependency of |
| 7 |
something in your world file. |

Yep. |

|
| 15 |
So just to illustrate: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
# touch /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/plugin/bugsummary.vim |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
# emerge --unmerge -va gentoo-syntax |
| 20 |

>>> Unmerging app-vim/gentoo-syntax-20051221-r1... |
| 23 |
No package files given... Grabbing a set. |
| 24 |
[SNIP] |
| 25 |
<<< obj /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/plugin/newinitd.vim |
| 26 |
<<< obj /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/plugin/neweselect.vim |
| 27 |
<<< obj /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/plugin/newebuild.vim |
| 28 |
<<< obj /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/plugin/gentoo-common.vim |
| 29 |
--- !mtime obj /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/plugin/bugsummary.vim |
| 30 |
[SNIP] |
| 31 |
--- !empty dir /usr/share/vim |
| 32 |
<<< dir /usr/share/doc/gentoo-syntax-20051221-r1 |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
All the things that has a "<<<" are actually removed. The things with "---" |
| 35 |
are not removed for the reason given in the following column. Since I |
| 36 |
touch'ed /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/plugin/bugsummary.vim it wasn't removed |
| 37 |
with the reason: "!mtime" which means the last modified time has been altered |
| 38 |
after it was installed. The reason "!empty" is the reason for dirs which |
| 39 |
aren't empty (others packages have installed files in the same dirs...). |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
After the unmerge is complete the only way to know is that the files no longer |
| 42 |
belong to any package. Of course when I remerge this package in a few minutes |
| 43 |
the files will be overwritten and the mtime will be correct again... |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
Hope that makes it clear. |
