[Solved] error running emerge -depclean

[G3nt00]

Hi,

I just ran

Code: Select all

sudo emerge-webrsync
sudo emerge -avuDN @world

which pulled a few updates in, went smooth. But then I did

Code: Select all

sudo emerge -depclean
emerge: can't specify both of "--emptytree" and "--noreplace".

What does that mean? I didn't specify anything... Please advise, thanks.

Hi G3nt00,

you are missing a hyphen.

Code: Select all

sudo emerge -depclean

is actually the same as

Code: Select all

sudo emerge -d -e -p -c -l -e -a -n

containing -e = --emptytree and -n = --noreplace.

That was a stupid thing to miss on my part... Sorry!! And thanks for pointing it out. Worked much better with both hyphens...
