4 Thanks for this very useful hint! I have managed to free a lot
5 of precious disk space!!

7 I did it in a semi-automated way:
8
9 # emerge -p prune > prune-list.txt
10
11 then I edited the file, leaving only the rows with packages
12 I really wanted to prune (for instance I wouldn't prune old
13 kernels)
14
15 # vi prune-list.txt
16
17 and then:
18
19 for i in `cat prune-list.txt`; do emerge -v prune $i ; done
