I guess what I would do in your situation would be to just nuke everything in |
| 9 |
the x11 categories: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
# grep x11 /var/lib/portage/world |
| 12 |
# cd /var/db/pkg && emerge -Cva x11*/* |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
The first gets a list of the x11 packages that you had in your world file. The |
| 15 |
second removes all of it. Then I would emerge modular X.org again and make |
| 16 |
sure not to overwrite it by emerging monolithic X.org. |
