For everyone talking about -c vs -C. For the record, I never brought up removing packages in my sets discussion. That was an argument others were making against sets.
It was 2 others seen below who mentioned the use of -C/--unmerge. For anyone telling me, I should be using -c vs -C. Why did you not say anything to them? They brought it up? They were the ones using? Yet no one spoke up to them as the have to me.... I was not discussing that. I rarely use such myself. I was just entertaining a discussion with others, their issues. Just for others to put the focus on me. It is all pretty funny!
