When doing an emerge --depclean --ask, the --ask flag is ignored and emerge starts with the countdown for the first package. When doing the same with the --pretend flag on, behaviour is correct. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge --depclean --ask 2. 3. Actual Results: Calculating depclean dependencies ... done! >>> These are the packages that I would unmerge: !!! Trying to unmerge package(s) in system profile. 'sys-fs/devfsd' !!! This could be damaging to your system. >>> Waiting 10 seconds before starting... >>> (Control-C to abort)... Press Ctrl-C to Stop in: 10 Exiting on signal 2 Expected Results: Something along the lines of: Calculating depclean dependencies ... done! >>> These are the packages that I would unmerge: [... List of packages ...] Do you want me to continue? [Yes/No]
`emerge info` please. It works fine here.
Note, test with the latest ~arch version if you're not running it before posting a bug, please.
