The Nautilus-ebuild depends on fam. Since gamin, a per-user version of fam was introduced, the ebuild should probably be using something like virtual/fam instead of app-admin/fam(?) to prevent blocking. In any case, I've added what an emerge -puD world gives me after having switched to gamin (fam is not merged - only gamin is). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 0. (emerge gnome) 1. emerge unmerge fam 2. emerge gamin 3. emerge -puD [--tree] world Actual Results: root, root/ # emerge -puD --tree world These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order: Calculating world dependencies ...done!

>> read the bugreport form & search before filing bugs. I suggest reading http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69549#c2 and removing this from duplicates. Nautilus does not indirectly depend of fam through gnome-vfs but directly requires it. On a sidenote, I did search before reporting this bug. I did read the bugreport form. Please don't expect everyone to have the same overview about the bugzilla db as you might have.
