 Posted: Thu Oct 27, 2011 6:04 am Post subject: [Solved] Portage pulling in htdig on a world update |
 |
|
Hi all.
I have a little bit of a simple question, but im not sure how you would find the answer.
Every time I perform a emerge -uND world, portage installs htdig onto the server. I then go an unmerge the software manually. This has happened the last 3 updates.
I was wondering how I would track down why emerge thinks htdig should be installed system. I'm unsure how to troubleshoot this issue.
Reason why is; i'm running my own home web server which faces the internet, and I don't want to be offering dig through a webpage.
Thanks
Lock

ok so noob me has figured out that equery shows the packages which are dependent on.
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild N ] www-misc/htdig-3.2.0_beta6-r3 USE="-ssl" 0 kB
[ebuild R ] kde-base/khelpcenter-4.7.2 USE="(-aqua) -debug (-kdeenablefinal)" 0 kB
I guess I have to unmerge the help. I really don't want it.

| The "handbook" USE flag is the culprit. |

With some equery here and equery there,
Ive figured out that its the handbook flag which is not in my default /etc/make.conf file. This is pulling in htdig into khelpcenter, think its just better to remove it completely and work backwards for specific packages which i want the handbook in. |
