Sorry to hammer on this so much... I haven't been tinkering and keeping up with my gentoo install for a while. emerge -v -p emacs-cvs These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild N ] dev-util/cvs-1.11.18 -doc -emacs 0 kB [ebuild N ] app-editors/emacs-cvs-22.0.50 +X -Xaw3d (-aqua) -debug +gif +gnome +gtk +jpeg +nls +png +spell +tiff 0 kB I have a more recent cvs installed from scratch too. Mainly to build a version that allows root commits. Looking at the output I've forgotten what the minus and plus signs mean. I kind of understand the notations on `emacs-cvs' from building it repeatedly over the years. It will build with those items with plus signs but in this case I know what the items are. cvs-1.11.18 -doc -emacs <= what does it mean exactly? Why would emacs be a factor in building cvs? And what does -doc refer to. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
