Description Karl-Robert Ernst 2007-04-22 15:24:44 UTC
Since I (and probably many other people too) use libata for all my ide-drives, there is no need for having sys-apps/hdparm installed.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use kernel with libata
2. unmerge hdparm

Actual Results:  
Everything works, but hdparm is installed again at the next update

Expected Results:  
hdparm should not be installed
