I want to have a networkmanager free system. But now I am requested to add the networkmanager USE flag to gnome-control-center. root@impala:/root(78)# emerge -uvDN world These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Explicitely removing the networkmanager USE flag from gnome-shell seems to remove the issue.
(In reply to Juergen Rose from comment #1) > Explicitely removing the networkmanager USE flag from gnome-shell seems to > remove the issue. That is the desired behavior: 15 Jun 2015; Gilles Dartiguelongue <eva@gentoo.org> gnome-shell-3.16.2.ebuild: Add missing USE dependency on gnome-control-center[networkmanager] now that it is optional again. Thanks to Ole Reifschneider for noticing.
