It results in this which is all I need and then some. |

Notice how my required packages and installed package match up? |

I have quite a few of those as well but they are things I installed |
68 |
directly. Given that some of them are pulled in by virtuals which could |
69 |
be dependencies, I may can remove some of the ones I have. May test |
70 |
that one day when I'm bored. |

I have several eselect packages installed here and not one entry in my |
104 |
world file. All of them are pulled in by the packages that need them. |

If it were my system, I'd be pulling the broom out of my closet. |
