Good thought, but no. In fact, I've tried a
USE="-gnome -gtk -gtk2 -apache2" emerge -upvD world
and I still get the same thing. I don't think it's a flag thing.
Besides, what flag would trigger development sources?
Somehow portage thinks that those packages are not installed, but need
to be. Besides /var/cache/edb/world and virtuals, where can I look?
