emerge -uDp wants to install new packages?

[solarium_rider]

First off...I searched the forums (briefly) and didn't find this anywhere, so excuse me if it's a dup.

Now my system is a console based system only...

Code: Select all

#emerge -UpD world
>>> --upgradeonly implies --update... adding --update to options.

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[ebuild    U ] sys-devel/gcc-config-1.3.3-r1 [1.3.1-r1]

[ebuild    U ] app-editors/vim-core-6.2-r1 [6.2]

Any idea why it wants to install all those new packages? My use flags are as follows:

Code: Select all

Well...

ínsteag of

Code: Select all

USE="docs"

try USE="-docs"
[docs]

[HolyCoitus]

If you change use flags and do a --deep on emerge, it can find different dependencies. Evidently as was previously mentioned, you added the use flag doc (I assume) and now it wants to emerge the docs for all those apps.

[solarium_rider]

Yeah, change the doc flag to -doc seems to kill em. I always had that flag enabled, so it's weird it didn't try to install them before, and what caused the doc's to want to install xfree and so forth?

Okay, so I run the same command on my home computer and it gives me:

Code: Select all

# emerge -UDp world

use flags are:

Code: Select all

Any idea why it wants to install those docs now? Better yet, is there any *simple* way to find out which dependencies/use flags are causing them to appear?

Thanks,

[robmoss]

Try using the -v flag:

Code: Select all

emerge -uDpv world

[solarium_rider]

I don't think that's what i'm looking for...

Code: Select all

# emerge -uDpv world

So that shows me what configure options will be included w/ each package? ...but It doesn't show me which dependency is causing those docbook packages to show up. I have a feeling it's related to apache maybe, but can't figure out where it specified and how to stop it...
