8 Do you have a backup dialup account like me? That's why I have
9 pppconfig, which pulls in ppp. Try "pretend depclean" and see what you
10 get. E.g...
11
12 #############################################
13 [d531][waltdnes][~] emerge -pv --depclean ppp
14
15 Calculating dependencies... done!
16 net-dialup/ppp-2.4.5-r1 pulled in by:
17 net-dialup/pppconfig-2.3.17-r1
18 #############################################

20 You might also want to try...
21
22 emerge -pv --depclean ppp pppconfig
