Orphaned meaning "installed as a dependency of something that is itself already deinstalled" (i.e. not in the world-file).

I think there is a lot of unneccessary stuff Hm, I don't think so. Mine is similar: about 950MB. OpenOffice takes 370MB (it's the -bin version, it includes a lot of redundant libraries). My GCCs take about 200MB (including java support). Then there's Perl, 2x Python, 2x PHP and Wine's archive of windows DLLs. So I think about 1G is quite normal for a typical desktop. -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
