I have to `emerge -ev world` (gcc update). This machine is my (private) server, including hylafax. But now portage wants to install xterm for hylafax and I don't know why. It is already installed and running w/o xterm. Here's some output: # emerge -etv world >>> --tree implies --pretend... adding --pretend to options.

If I do a depgraph (equery g hylafax) on a machine with X (and associated USE flags such as tk, gtk, etc) I see xorg and a few related packages, but xterm doesn't appear directly. If USE="gtk" is in effect when ghostscript is pulled in, then so is xorg, xterm, etc. However, if I emerge hylafax-4.2.1-r2 on a server machine (with no X installed and a "server" set of USE flags) I get the following deps; notice the gs USE flags include -gtk: $ USE="faxonly gs" sudo emerge hylafax -vp These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

I guess the work-around is to use --nodeps when you update Hylafax. Other than that, I can't think of anything else to add (other than it doesn't appear to be a Hylafax problem). Maybe a portage bug if you want to try to track it down...
The workaround maybe working if I only want to update hylafax, but as I wrote in the opening entry I have to `emerge -ev world` - after the gcc-update. I don't think '--nodeps' is an option for that.
I'm not sure what you expect hylafax to do for you, since it seems to be an obscure interaction between your USE flags and some other package(s). The only thing I can suggest is forcing more USE flags off with explicit "-foo". I'm not which ones just yet, but try starting with the tcl/tk ones if you can.
OK, the USE-flag causes the problem is "opengl" which was set from the default (and I haven't seen it in the "emerge info"-output). But why is this flag causing hylafax to depend on xterm? Merry christmas.

Because media-libs/jasper depends on virtual/opengl with USE="opengl" and virtual/opengl is provided by xorg-x11 by default. Closing.
