Makes sense to me - doing the equery on the package that installed the |
| 10 |
binary (which may have a name unrelated). |

IIUC, there are two tools useful for second/third opinions for this task; |
| 13 |
dep and pquery. Here's an example of their use on fftw: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
dep -L fftw |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
pquery --vdb --revdep sci-libs/fftw |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
And as you idicated, do a revdep-rebuild after the manual deletion. |
