What do you suggest, without solving the current emerge problem?

What problem you have that you think --depclean will solve?
Read more about depclean please, and stop thinking it's a critical tool to run.

I think your non solution to your problem is using eix, i remember someone shown it have a find-obsolete or something like that option that could show you list of package that are not use in your system.
Which mean you could use eix to get the list and just emerge -C them

Waterdevil: fix your location please (add some spaces, or   if they're allowed.)

ATM it causes the formatting of the posts to look awful, with half the screen-space taken by the sidebar.

Waterdevil,
fix first your "emerge -avuDN @world" dependency issues, after this --depclean works fine.

Don't see the misformatting in Firefox or Chromium. What're you using? Or is it fixed?

@krinn

There are sometimes blockers or skips from previous versions and I don't like to unemerge all obsolete versions per hand.

Thanks for suggestion eix-test-obsolete.

This was severe when I changed from dantrell-gnome back to normal with 560 packages to downgrade or re-emerge and the same at changing from openrc to systemd.

@steveL

I'm sorry, but I didn't know.

Changed "-" to " "

Which is perfectly fine that a program automate these boring operations for you, but not if you think it help you with blockers: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-8164044.html#8164044

It's fixed now, yeah; but www-client/netsurf. To test: make a really location long up, with hyphens instead of spaces.

Thanks, Waterdevil. Have fun with your Gentoo. :-)
