"emerge --prune --pretend world" will tell you all packages that have |
8 |
more than one version installed (ie. slotted). |

As for finding out whether a particular version of a slotted package |
11 |
is still needed or not, well, you could do: |
12 |
|
13 |
emerge --prune <pkg> |
14 |
emerge -Dv world |
15 |
revdep-rebuild |
16 |
|
17 |
But the above is a bit dangerous, and could break your system. Be careful. |
