Hello all, Just a quick note -- I've just committed install-mask-0.0.1 to gx86. You can use it to quickly set and apply INSTALL_MASK setting so that you can get rid of the all files you don't want.
The tool is very simple to use. It comes with a few pre-set locations so you don't need to type in exact paths. To add a path to INSTALL_MASK use -a: install-mask -a systemd install-mask -a bash-completion install-mask -a /foo/bar Removal is done through -d, info can be printed using -i (this will explain preset names as well). It can also generate rebuild list to apply INSTALL_MASK changes. After adding new masks, you can do: emerge -1v $(install-mask -r) to rebuild all affected packages. You can also manually 'rm -r' respective paths -- 'install-mask -r' will not complain about non-existing files. Sadly, due to bug #364633 [1] doing the opposite is not possible right now. When it's fixed, it will require specifying the paths manually (at least in this version): emerge -1v $(install-mask -r bash-completion) [1]:https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=364633 -- Best regards, Michał Górny
