No! --depclean is evil! :)) (and/or my system is borked).
It tells me to remove dev-python/pycrypto, when portage seems to depend on it:
# equery depends dev-python/pycrypto
[ Searching for packages depending on dev-python/pycrypto... ]
sys-apps/portage-2.1.4.4 (!build? >=dev-python/pycrypto-2.0.1-r6)
Also, it tells me to remove hdparm-8.6. I noticed that there is a 8.7 version
available, but emerge -uDv world does not pick this up . . . why would that
be so?
# emerge -upDv hdparm
