Maybe we have something different then. I don't have blas-reference on

help any because it just required a different set of bloat.
Maybe it's time to make a backup, then remove all USE flags from make.conf
and package.use, set your profile to default/linux/<arch>/10.0/desktop/kde
and rebuild. Alan and Neil's idea of a set of the meta-packages you want
sounds good to me too.
Then you'll really have a clean system.
I may follow suit - I built this system with kde-meta for simplicity, but of
course it now has a lot of stuff I don't want, including Fortran. I tried
rebuilding with -fortran as I said a few minutes ago, but portage wanted ifc
instead.
Yep. On my machine, it pulled in about a dozen or so new packages to
replace R and fortran being disabled on gcc. I'm not sure I made my
system any leaner or cleaner. I actually may have done the opposite.
