Are you sure that's all? No need to change my global useflags at all? When I change profile and check what would be re-emerged, only a few minor changes exists. What I would like to achieve to get rid of all the fat kde/gnome stuff but of course without re install my whole system. Is there anyone here who already did something similar? Thank you Laszlo
