Created attachment 544436 [details, diff] Amend section on package removal As discussed in the QA team: The section on package removal should specify that all references to the package go away when a package is removed. In particular, this includes reverse dependencies. Patch is attached.
> <li>Remove package.mask and any package.use.mask entries</li> Lets make it a bit more generic, because not only these two files could be involved. 'Check the <code>/profiles</code> directory for the files that may reference a package and its USE flags (e.g. package.mask, package.use.mask and so on)'
