Hi |

I am a KDE 3.5 user and do not want GNOME since i don't use it. The best diff |
| 4 |
application that I know of is Meld (I have tried kdiff3, kompare, gtkdiff, |
| 5 |
tkdiff and of course diff). Meld is a GNOME and Python application and |
| 6 |
depends on among others gnome-python and gnome-python-extras. |
| 7 |
Hence Meld pulls in a LOT of packages including gnome-panel, gnome-themes, |
| 8 |
totem and nautilus (I've counted 50 packages that would be removed if I did |
| 9 |
uninstalled meld). |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Therefore I decided I would remove some of the packages that obviously are not |
| 12 |
necessary. I did this by copying meld, gnome-python and gnome-python-extras |
| 13 |
to an overlay and removing dependencies that I knew wasn't necessary (I put |
| 14 |
in a gnome use flag, which I have disabled and let them depend on that use |
| 15 |
flag). |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
The following shows the packages that I have removed and meld is still working |
| 18 |
as intended (of course a lot of them are deep dependencies so the packages I |
| 19 |
actually removed through the ebuilds are a lot fewer): |

Now the problem is that when I run emerge meld -uvpD it wants to pull in three |
| 50 |
of them, and I cannot figure out why: |
| 51 |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 52 |
root@pc191-c:~# emerge meld -uvpDt |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order: |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Calculating dependencies ...done! |

Does anyone have any ideas for finding out why they're pulled in? I have |
| 72 |
posted the output of emerge --info below. Any help is appreciated. |
