I think, I have found one error in /usr/sbin/regenworld. If I follow the commands below, it give me the package into the /var/lib/portage/world. # epm -qa | grep libxslt | awk '{system("emerge -f =" $1)}' Calculating dependencies... done! >>> Emerging (1 of 1) dev-libs/libxslt-1.1.17 to / >>> Previously fetched file: libxslt-1.1.17.tar.bz2 MD5 ;-) >>> Previously fetched file: libxslt-1.1.17.tar.bz2 RMD160 ;-) >>> Previously fetched file: libxslt-1.1.17.tar.bz2 SHA1 ;-) >>> Previously fetched file: libxslt-1.1.17.tar.bz2 SHA256 ;-) >>> Previously fetched file: libxslt-1.1.17.tar.bz2 size ;-) >>> checking ebuild checksums ;-) >>> checking auxfile checksums ;-) >>> checking miscfile checksums ;-) >>> checking libxslt-1.1.17.tar.bz2 ;-) # /usr/sbin/regenworld add to world: dev-libs/libxslt # grep libxslt /var/lib/portage/world dev-libs/libxslt I think, that only fetch of the package should not be the reason to add the package to the world file. You can also try it with other packages (libgcrypt, ...). What do you think about that?

Created attachment 93407 [details] clean_world If you want to remove some packagges from /var/lib/portage/world you can use this clean_world. it works very well for me. Is it save way how to change /var/log/emerge.log file. I think it can help to many users to clean up their system.
