1 I have unmerged x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse and x11-drivers/xf86-input-
2 keyboard and also removed mouse and keyboard from my /etc/make.conf, which now
3 only contains:
4
5 INPUT_DEVICES="synaptics evdev"
6
7
8 However, portage seems to want to pull in x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse and
9 x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard:

11 # emerge -uatDv world

13 These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

32 As you can see above portage still shows keyboard and mouse as INPUT_DEVICES.
33 Are these defined anywhere else other than make.conf?
