 |
|
Hey
I'm setting up a gentoo linux server (apache, squid, samba, ...)
and I dont need X, but it seems that I cant install anything without getting X.
fx. emerge -p apache mod_ssl php gives me
xfree and opengl
It seems it's php that makes the trouble, but i'm sure it's not the only package that includes X, is there a way to prevent emerge from including X11  |

I did, and I thought you could just put -X in the USE flag but i doesnt work 
I tried to put it in make.conf and manually export it. Nothing worked.
Do I need to run a command before the flags are "discovered" ? |

Try with -gtk -qt ecc. Even better try with USE="-* flag1 flag2...", where -* disables everything (even the defaut flags) and flag1 flag2 are the flags you want.

When they added the -v flag which shows USE flags on packages you are about to emerge, it quickly became a habbit
emerge -pv php
see the flags that you dont want,
USE="-gtk -x -qt -java" emerge -pv php
if all goes well,
USE="-gtk -x -qt -java" emerge php |
