I have already uninstalled systemd (which was accidentally installed in the first place) and all of the packages portage says are pulling it in.

Code:

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N     ] sys-apps/systemd-208-r2:0/1  USE="acl filecaps firmware-loader gudev introspection kmod pam policykit tcpd -audit -cryptsetup -doc -gcrypt -http -lzma -python -qrcode (-selinux) {-test} -vanilla -xattr" ABI_X86="(64) (-32) (-x32)" PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python2_7" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7" 0 kB
[ebuild  N     ] sys-apps/gentoo-systemd-integration-2  0 kB
[ebuild  N     ] virtual/udev-208  USE="gudev introspection kmod (-selinux) -static-libs" ABI_X86="(64) (-32) (-x32)" 0 kB
[ebuild  N     ] virtual/dev-manager-0  0 kB
[ebuild  N     ] gnome-base/gnome-settings-daemon-3.8.6.1  USE="colord cups i18n policykit short-touchpad-timeout udev -debug (-openrc-force) (-packagekit) {-test}" INPUT_DEVICES="-wacom" 0 kB

Total: 5 packages (5 new), Size of downloads: 0 kB

Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No] n

Quitting.


I have uninstalled systemd, gentoo-systemd-intergration, gnome-settings-daemon, and virtual/logger. I have set the -systemd USE flag. It STILL keeps saying systemd is scheduled for merge when I try to update, it's really annoying. I have tried adding it into package.mask, and it just complains that I need to take it out.

How can I get it to stop asking me to install these? I don't want them.

after changing USE flags, run:

Code:
emerge --pretend --newuse --update --deep @world


If you like the output, run the command without --pretend

With equery you can see wich packages depend on what you just removed:

Code:
equery d systemd

for example

Please post the output of emerge --info and the full error text generated as a result of your package.mask entry. That entry should cause Portage to explain why it wants systemd, in addition to stating that the mask forbids having it.
