coreutils is an lzma archive, so lzma-utils are required to decompress |
| 79 |
it. So it seems proper that it's a build-time dep. |
| 80 |
|
| 81 |
I think there was something about man using lzma IF you had lzma-utils |
| 82 |
installed at the time of emerging man. So maybe you can try to unmerge |
| 83 |
lzma-utils, then re-emerge man (and maybe convert your lzma manpages |
| 84 |
to bz2). |
| 85 |
|
| 86 |
Also be sure you've got PORTAGE_COMPRESS set to what you'd like in |
| 87 |
your make.conf |
