I do this: emerge --unmerge upower emerge -1vp sys-power/upower-pm-utils , and I still get portage threatening to merge that other init system: These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

What am I doing wrong? Where is systemd coming from? I look in upower-pm-utils-0.9.23.ebuild, and the only reference to systemd seems to be right at the beginning: EAPI=5 inherit eutils systemd (, plus a couple of inconsequential references near the end.) I'm not quite sure exactly what "inherit" means here, but the FM (man (5) ebuild) says: Inherit is portage's maintenance of extra classes of functions that are external to ebuilds and provided as inheritable capabilities and data. They define functions and set data types as drop-in replacements, expanded, and simplified routines for extremely common tasks to streamline the build process. Call to inherit cannot depend on conditions which can vary in given ebuild. Specification of the eclasses contains only their name and not the .eclass extension. Also note that the inherit statement must come before other variable declarations unless these variables are used in global scope of eclasses. , which, being vague, leaves me still unsure what "inherit" means. ;-( Is there any documentation anywhere of what "inherit" actually DOES?
