Description Thekk 2005-09-28 00:21:35 UTC

When doing an emerge --depclean --ask, the --ask flag is ignored and emerge
starts with the countdown for the first package. When doing the same with the
--pretend flag on, behaviour is correct.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge --depclean --ask
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Calculating depclean dependencies ... done!

>>> These are the packages that I would unmerge:


!!! Trying to unmerge package(s) in system profile. 'sys-fs/devfsd'
!!! This could be damaging to your system.

>>> Waiting 10 seconds before starting...
>>> (Control-C to abort)...
Press Ctrl-C to Stop in: 10 

Exiting on signal 2


Expected Results:  
Something along the lines of:
Calculating depclean dependencies ... done!

>>> These are the packages that I would unmerge:

[... List of packages ...]

Do you want me to continue? [Yes/No]

Note, test with the latest ~arch version if you're not running it before 
posting a bug, please.
