At a certain point in the handbook it states that one should use the following line to install the pcmcia-cs package: USE=¨-X¨ emerge pcmcia-cs But when checking the dependencies with 'emerge --pretend pcmcia-cs' it doesn't show any dependencies on X anywhere. I suppose the USE=¨-X¨ can be ommited from the handbook then as it could confuse newbies. I could be mistaken though. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge --prtend pcmcia-cs. => shows no dependencies on X. Actual Results: shows no dependencies on X Expected Results: None in particular.
