Meanwhile I have found out that the culprit is "virtual/jdk". I have 1.8.0-r6 installed, and emerge wants to upgrade to 11-r2 (strange versioning, isn't it?). Apparently, I have neither "openjdk" nor "openjdk-bin" installed, but "icedtea- bin". Upgrading virtual/jdk to 11 seems to insist on some openjdk... "equery g virtual/jdk" says for the two versions in question: * dependency graph for virtual/jdk-1.8.0-r6 `-- virtual/jdk-1.8.0-r6 x86 `-- dev-java/openjdk-bin-8.322_p06 (dev-java/openjdk-bin) [missing keyword] [headless-awt=] `-- dev-java/openjdk-8.322_p06 (dev-java/openjdk) x86 [headless-awt=] `-- dev-java/icedtea-bin-3.16.0 (dev-java/icedtea-bin) x86 [headless-awt=] `-- dev-java/icedtea-3.21.0 (dev-java/icedtea) [~x86 keyword] [headless-awt=] [ virtual/jdk-1.8.0-r6 stats: packages (5), max depth (1) ] * dependency graph for virtual/jdk-11-r2 `-- virtual/jdk-11-r2 M[package.mask] `-- dev-java/openjdk-bin-11.0.14_p9-r1 (dev-java/openjdk-bin) [missing keyword] [gentoo-vm(+) headless-awt=] `-- dev-java/openjdk-11.0.14_p9-r1 (dev-java/openjdk) x86 [gentoo-vm(+) headless-awt=] [ virtual/jdk-11-r2 stats: packages (3), max depth (1) ] so it seems that virtual/jdk 11 can't/doesn't want to use icedtea-bin and needs openjdk[-bin] which requires cups in any case... Do I need virtual/jdk at all? I don't even develop Java software - all I need is some Java runtime which I can call from the command line by "java -jar blabla.jar". For the moment, I have masked >=virtual/jdk-10 -Matt

Pale Moon is my "daily driver" browser. google-chrome is Google's binary version, o Gentoo devs have no control over the dependencies. With chromium, there is a cups USE flag, but you have to put up with long compile times. -- Neil Bothwick Oops.

You can't. cups is more unwanted/unnecessary bloatware weasling its way in just like systemd and sphinx. I also have cups as a requirement for app-text/ghostscript-gpl as well as for google-chrome, which I use 99% for Netflix.

(The option '--deep' may show more dependencies too). I have cups set here but don't have java.

[gentoo-user] Java wants cups?
Hi, after "emerge --sync" today, and "emerge -auv @world", I got the message: emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy ">=app-text/ghostscript-gpl-9.09[cups]". !!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request: - app-text/ghostscript-gpl-9.55.0-r1::gentoo (Change USE: +cups) (dependency required by "net-print/cups-filters-1.28.10-r3::gentoo[postscript]" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "net-print/cups-2.3.3_p2-r3::gentoo" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "dev-java/openjdk-11.0.14_p9-r1::gentoo" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "virtual/jdk-11-r2::gentoo" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "@selected" [set]) (dependency required by "@world" [argument]) But: - the cups USE flag is globally disabled (and nowhere locally enabled); - since this is a virtual server, no printers at all are used/ connected/configured. I could run emerge with USE="cups", but in this case ~30 new packages would be installed (many, many "libXsomething" among them). And I would have a completely useless printing system. How do I get rid of all those cups things? Thanks, -Matt
