 |
|
| I don't have mozilla installed. I do have mozilla-firebird. I checked world file and var/cache etc. files and no where does it say I should have mozilla installed. When I do an emerge -up world I can see that it wants to add (N) mozilla 1.5. Any help? |

maybe you run GNOME and have Epiphany installed?

You can check to see what packages depend on another package using qpkg, which is part of gentoolkit.
This will show you what packages you have installed which depend on mozilla. If there is nothing that is installed depending on it, they there's probably something else new which depends on mozilla. You can try it without the -I option to search for all packages (installed or not) depending on mozilla, this will take longer.

I do not have a mozilla USE flag and it still wants to emerge mozilla-1.5b-r1 and epiphany-1.0.6. I already have mozilla-firebird-0.7 installed and don't want any more browsers. Why the insistence on installing mozilla and epiphany?
Previously, I injected epiphany into portage with a "emerge -i net-www/epiphany-1.0.0" or something another to stymie this. However, every time a new version appears in portage, I have to reinject to accomodate...not a worthwhile solution.
So two questions:
1) Why the does portage want to install mozilla and epiphany when I already have mozilla-firebird?
2) What can I do to stop this behavior?
Thanks! |
