Thanks for your reply. |

What I've done on two of my gentoo systems is, what had been suggested in |
| 70 |
one of the earlier replies to this thread. I ran emerge -C `grep -i libs |
| 71 |
/var/lib/portage/world`, followed by emerge @preserved-rebuild. |
| 72 |
While on another one of my systems I tried emerge --deselect `grep -i libs |
| 73 |
/var/lib/portage/world`, followed by emerge --depclean. |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
As a result, I no longer have any libs in my world set. |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
I should probably put sys-libs/gpm back into the world set via emerge |
| 78 |
--noreplace, based on what you said about the package. |
| 79 |
|
| 80 |
I should probably look into what does and what doesn't have to go into the |
| 81 |
world file. Up until recently I assumed that portage would figure that out |
| 82 |
for me. |
