|
Hi!
So far I think gentoo is GREAT. It has all the things combined which I missed at the other distros. The one thing I love most is emerge - it's just so easy to install software from source...
...but what if I want to uninstall a big software like gnome?
When I do a
| Code: | | emerge unmerge gnome --pretend |
he just gives me "gnome-base/gnome 2.0.0-r2" for uninstalling...but what about all the other gnome packages that got installed when I did "emerge gnome" (like gnome-applets, gnoem-panel, gnome-session,...)?? |

| This has been brought up in the suggestion forum before and would be a welcomed feature to portage. |

The script here should give you exactly that. Save it to a file, chmod a+x the file and then run it with:
| Code: |
./<script_name> gnome-base/gnome
|
It will give you a list of dependencies that are not being used by other installed packages.

Cut-and-paste errors, seemingly. Line breaks are happening incorrectly when you pasted it and comment lines have been continued on to the next line incorrectly.
You can view source in your browser and grab it from there or use a cut-and-paste procedure that does not mess up line ends .
Regards.
