That's a lot of packages to remove in one go. I'd remove a few at a time, running emerge -utvDN world after each run. As long as nothing not on the depclean list ries to pull the removed packages back in, remove a few more. It takes a bit longer, but makes it easier to identify the cause if a problem occurs. I'd start with the non-library packages. -- Neil Bothwick This is a test of the emergency tagline stealing system.
