Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I took a workstation, quite some time ago, and converted it to |
| 4 |
a router/firewall for learning about and testing iptables/netfilter. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
It's very minimal: |
| 7 |
USE="-* perl acl acpi hardened kerberos krb4 ssl dvd sse mmx readline \ |
| 8 |
lm_sensors syslog " |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
and running hardened: 2.6.14-hardened-r8 |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
It's been working fine emerge updates request very little. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
However today, upon syncing the system, then 'revdep-rebuild -p' |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I get these unwanted packages: |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
[ebuild N ] dev-db/mysql-4.1.20 USE="perl ssl -berkdb -big-tables |
| 19 |
-cluster |
| 20 |
-debug -embedded -extraengine -latin1 -minimal -raid -srvdir -static" |
| 21 |
[ebuild N ] dev-perl/DBD-mysql-2.9007 USE="perl -minimal" |
| 22 |
[ebuild N ] media-libs/sdl-mixer-1.2.6-r1 USE="-mikmod -mp3 |
| 23 |
-timidity -vorbis" |
| 24 |
[ebuild N ] media-libs/smpeg-0.4.4-r7 USE="mmx -X -debug -gtk |
| 25 |
-opengl" |
| 26 |
[ebuild N ] dev-python/pygame-1.6.2 |
| 27 |
Now you can remove -p (or --pretend) from arguments and re-run |
| 28 |
revdep-rebuild. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Furthermore, using 'equery depends <package>' nothing is calling for these |
| 32 |
packages.... |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
When I run 'slocate pygame' dozens of things pop up. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Yet: |
| 37 |
eix pygame |
| 38 |
* dev-python/pygame |
| 39 |
Available versions: 1.5.3 1.5.5 1.5.6 1.6 1.6.2 ~1.7.1 |
| 40 |
Installed: none |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
The world file does not show any of these packages, so for example, |
| 44 |
pygames must be a vestige of the workstation setup. Any hints |
| 45 |
on getting ride of request for these packages, other than |
| 46 |
using package.mask? |
