Why in the heavens name should be gentoo-sources pulled in as
dependency of whatever?
As a dependency of virtual-sources, which is probably pulled in by kmod.
Adding --tree would have told you for sure.
You may get away with adding gentoo-sources to package.provided.
Thanks, this works (never heard of this file before). But there
is one small problem: no wildcards are allowed, so whenever new
sorces come I'll have to edit package.provided again, and again...
BTW why should kmod depend on kernel-sources? Or even better, why
should be kmod installed, if I have static (non-modular) kernel?
