okay, i just rid myself from gnome and i tried emerge -uDpv world

i already remerged everything applicable with USE="-gnome" and removed anything
that would need gnome. however portage still wants to install gnome-vfs,
libgnome gnome-desktop etc etc.

the only thing i found was this dependency:

yOSHi ~ # equery d gnome-vfs
[ Searching for packages depending on gnome-vfs... ]
media-gfx/gimp-2.3.12
gnome-base/librsvg-2.16.0
gnome-extra/libgsf-1.14.2
sys-fs/ntfsprogs-1.13.1
media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.3_pre20061112

all those packages work (and build) fine without gnome-vfs (i already remerged
them to make sure). what gives?

2: mono wants to be installed in world update. (i unmerged it recently)
equery d mono

yOSHi ~ # equery d mono
[ Searching for packages depending on mono... ]
dev-lang/swig-1.3.29-r1
dev-java/antlr-2.7.5-r3

sys-apps/dbus-0.62-r1
net-dns/libidn-0.6.5-r1

yOSHi ~ #  emerge -uDpv swig antlr gmime dbus libidn
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

all those packages have USE="-mono" and have been remerged already.

does anyone have a clue what's going on?

no: it worked for you, on your box, for a few minutes.

> does anyone have a clue what's going on?

If ebuild maints put a dep, I bet year salary than removing the dep will lead
to something broken for at least one user amongst 10000.

Did you test every single possible feature of those packages for at least 100h
long ?

did you at least try some ldd ?

Just what /me thinks. I am not a maint. Good luck.

Works for me.

doublehp: your post is completly useless.

Don't use equery depends, it doesn't look at use flags state. If you want to
find out what pulls in some package, then package.mask it (or pass --tree
option to emerge).

Bugzilla is not a support forum, please don't use it as such.
