I have some files listed for specific versions in my world file. Things such as xchat 8.10 and gkrellm-newsticker. An example of how they are entered is: =x11-plugins/gkrellm-newsticker-0.3 Now when I run "dep-clean -UNv" I get the following output: Retrieving currently merged packages. 431 currently merged packages. Retrieving system packages. 98 packages contained in system. Preparing world file. Preparing list of installed world packages. 7852 ebuilds available. 159 packages contained in final world file.

These packages are depended upon but are not present on the system. Total of 0 needed packages. xchat, gkrellm and it's plugins shouldn't be listed as unneeded. The kde 3.0.5 on the other hand is an applicable one. The remaining files I'm not sure of. However I know several files were listed tho they shouldn't of been.(they were listed in green btw) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 12412 [details, diff] whoops, wrong bug#.. sorry. doesn't belong here.
- world file shouldn't contain versions anymore - AFAIK dep-clean is obsolete (it's definitely not supported anymore)
