[gentoo-user] can emerging git really require 121 pkgs?
Even on a fairly bare new install slowly being brough up to desired setup it seems like reqiring 116 new pkgs to install dev-vcs/git is bit much. But: Total: 121 packages (3 upgrades, 116 new, 2 in new slots), Size of downloads: 20,759 kB Even with USE="-X" its still 104 Whereas bzr and mercurial require about 5 each Can that be right? Oh, and also includes somekind of slotting mess involving different versions of perl At some point I will actually need git but for now bzr and mercurial will do. --- --- ---=--- --- --- emerge -vp dev-vcs/git (To avoid clogging the group with all that text... its posted here: zeus.jtan.com/~reader/vu2/disp.cgi

USE=perl is responsible for some of them, but you also want it set if you actually intend to use git. The rest look like they're being pulled in with USE=gtk, which in turn requires the Xorg stuff. Passing "--tree" to emerge will either confirm, or surprise you, who knows.
