It contains all the applications you have explicitly installed, the rest should be dependencies of these, so will be picked up by --emptytree. You may have some orphaned dependencies lying around, which depclean will pick up. I've tryed to --emptytree flag but still missing some installed applications :-( You don't really need to rebuild the whole system. Rebuilding glibc will take care of your changed locales, and --newuse will handle the changed USE flags. I would do emerge -av glibc emerge -uavDN world emerge -a depclean Check the packages that depclean wants to remove. If there are any you want to keep, add them to world with emerge -n packagename Let depclean remove the rest and your system should be up to date and consistent with your settings. The only time you would need to use --emptytree is if you have changed CFLAGS or LDFLAGS, in which case, you should do it after carrying out the above steps. -- Neil Bothwick Apple I (c) Copyright 1767, Sir Isaac Newton. pgpJZY5Z06CKa.pgp Description: PGP signature
