Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2012-03-15 07:02:13 UTC 
After removing last postgresql slot, a few symlinks are left broken in the filesystem. At least:

/usr/include/libpq
/usr/include/postgres*

The ebuilds should handle removing them in that case to avoid unnecessary pollution.

Apparently pkg_postrm() should already take care of this through `postgresql-config update'.
Comment 2 Aaron W. Swenson gentoo-dev 2012-09-29 10:39:47 UTC 
I can't reproduce this. The eselect module removes all of its symlinks for me.
