Hi folks, I do a --depclean -p every once in a while. I did one tonight and it said musicbrains was not used by anything but k3b. I checked my USE line and made sure it was not in there to be used and re-emerged k3b to make sure it was not compiled with it somehow.
When I did a emerge -C musicbrainz it said it wasn't found. Something like this: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # emerge -C musicbrains > > --- Couldn't find 'musicbrains' to unmerge. > > >>> No packages selected for removal by unmerge. Well, I did a locate for anything containing music and found some left over stuff from musicbrainz. Example but not all of it. > /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libmusicbrainz.pc > /usr/lib/libmusicbrainz.la > /usr/lib/libmusicbrainz.so > /usr/lib/libmusicbrainz.so.4.0.2 > /usr/lib/libmusicbrainz.so.4 > /usr/lib/libmusicbrainz.a and > /usr/share/doc/musicbrainz-2.1.4 > /usr/share/doc/musicbrainz-2.1.4/mb_howto.txt.gz > /usr/share/doc/musicbrainz-2.1.4/README.gz > /usr/share/doc/musicbrainz-2.1.4/TODO.gz > /usr/share/doc/musicbrainz-2.1.4/AUTHORS.gz > /usr/share/doc/musicbrainz-2.1.4/ChangeLog.gz So, it was there at some point I guess. Here is my k3b info now, after the re-emerge: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # emerge -pv k3b > > These are the packages that would be merged, in order: > > Calculating dependencies... done! > [ebuild R ] app-cdr/k3b-0.12.17 USE="alsa arts dvdr encode hal > kde mp3 vorbis -css -debug -ffmpeg -flac -musepack -musicbrainz > -sndfile -vcd -xinerama" LINGUAS="-af -bg -bn -br -bs -ca -cs -cy -da > -de -el -en_GB -es -et -eu -fi -fr -ga -he -hi -hu -is -it -ja -km -lt > -mk -ms -nb -nds -nl -nn -pa -pl -pt -pt_BR -ro -ru -se -sl -sr > [EMAIL PROTECTED] -sv -ta -tr -uk -zh_CN -zh_TW" 0 kB > > Total size of downloads: 0 kB > [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # Question is, since it does not have record of what to remove, how do I get rid of it without breaking something? I want to do this in a "clean" way if possible. Can I emerge it as a oneshot then unmerge it or will the mtimes mess up something? I read mtimes is how portage can tell if something has been messed with or not since it was merged. Teach me something if I am wrong here. Thanks in advance for the help.
