Please have a look at the following snippet taken from one of my consoles: gamemaster:~ # qdepends -C -Q desktop-file-utils gamemaster:~ # qdepends -Q -C desktop-file-utils dev-perl/Compress-Zlib-2.005 dev-perl/extutils-parsexs-2.18 dev-perl/XML-LibXML-1.65 dev-perl/IO-Compress-Zlib-2.005 app-office/openoffice-2.3.1 perl-core/File-Spec-3.25 gamemaster:~ # qdepends -CQ desktop-file-utils gamemaster:~ # qdepends -QC desktop-file-utils sys-apps/xmbmon-2.0.5-r1 x11-terms/aterm-1.0.1 media-gfx/imagemagick-6.3.7.9 dev-perl/Net-DNS-0.61 dev-perl/libwww-perl-5.805 dev-perl/Compress-Zlib-2.005 dev-perl/IO-Zlib-1.07 dev-perl/Archive-Zip-1.20 dev-perl/gtk2-perl-1.145 dev-perl/extutils-parsexs-2.18 dev-perl/XML-LibXML-1.65 dev-perl/IO-Compress-Zlib-2.005 media-video/dvdrip-0.98.8-r1 media-video/recordmydesktop-0.3.7.1 x11-libs/libSM-1.0.3 x11-libs/startup-notification-0.9 app-office/openoffice-2.3.1 media-libs/libmpeg2-0.4.1 media-libs/giflib-4.1.6 media-libs/imlib-1.9.15-r2 media-libs/mesa-7.0.2 media-libs/libwmf-0.2.8.4 perl-core/File-Spec-3.25 x11-apps/iceauth-1.0.2 gamemaster:~ # First, qdepends doesn't seem to recognize the -Q option when prefixed by -C option. Second, look at the different output of qdepends, when using "-QC" or "-Q -C". I supposed to get the same output... Cheers Poly-C Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:

Ah, I forgot to mention that when I use "qdepends -QC <pkg>" or "qdepends -Q -C <pkg>" I get colored output despite -C flag being set.
The -Q takes options. So -Q -C would see the '-C' as a regexp string vs actually trying to disable color. Try -CQ <cat/pkg> Note: -Q, --query <arg> * Query reverse deps
