Hello.

Today, as I did an emerge -uDp world, xfree suddenly was a dependancy needed
to be installed.

earthdawn distcc # emerge -uDp world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N    ] x11-base/opengl-update-1.5
[ebuild  N    ] x11-misc/ttmkfdir-3.0.9
[ebuild  N    ] media-libs/fontconfig-2.2.1
[ebuild  N    ] app-arch/cabextract-0.6
[ebuild  N    ] x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r3
[ebuild     U ] sys-devel/distcc-2.11.2 [2.11.1]

So I did:

earthdawn distcc # emerge -up distcc

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild     U ] sys-devel/distcc-2.11.2 [2.11.1]

Hmm. So distcc is not responsible... I did:

earthdawn distcc # emerge -ep world

[some packages skipped...]
[ebuild  N    ] net-misc/dhcpcd-1.3.22_p4-r1
[ebuild  N    ] media-libs/freetype-2.1.4-r1
[ebuild  N    ] x11-misc/ttmkfdir-3.0.9
[ebuild  N    ] dev-libs/expat-1.95.6-r1
[ebuild  N    ] sys-apps/ed-0.2-r3
[ebuild  N    ] media-libs/fontconfig-2.2.1
[ebuild  N    ] app-arch/cabextract-0.6
[ebuild  N    ] x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r3
[ebuild  N    ] dev-lang/python-2.2.3-r4
[ebuild  N    ] dev-java/java-config-1.1.1
[ebuild  N    ] dev-java/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1
[many packages skipped...]

Hmpf, I don't know where to search. Python ? Was installed yesterday, did
not install xfree there. freetype ? Seems to require ttmkfdir now... I don't
know :S How can I find out which ebuild suddenly requires xfree ? Any idea ?

Ah yes, and USE is:

USE="evms2 exiscan-acl acl apache2 apm crypt curl doc gd gif -gnome -gtk
imap innodb ipv6 java jpeg -kde ldap libwww maildir lmtp mmx mysql ncurses
nls pdflib perl png python -qt readline samba sasl ssl tcpd tiff truetype -X
xml xml2 zlib x86"

Thanks for _any_ reply :)
