Hi,
I would like to find particular use that enables package to merge during @world update/reinstall.
I know about or - but this is not what i want.
I need to find use that enables exact packages(ebuild). |

| i'm trying to build gentoo for steam with all multimedia support but without gnome and kde(i will use openbox as window manager). I have disabled all those desktop related use flags and i've chosen desktop profile with eselect. When i did @world update (fresh install) emerge build qtgui package for some reason. I would like to now which use flag did that. |

First, use --tree to see what pulls what at emerge time.
Second, if you already emerged qtgui, use emerge -pvc qtgui to see what holds on to it.
Equery depends can also be used but it will only report if there's such a dependency but not that it actually takes place. You need additional checks to see if the use flags in question are actually enabled.
Best Regards,

Probably some variant of qt; Currently qt6 is the newest.
You don't have to build full kde and gnome, but will have a very hard time trying to make a usable desktop without any of their libraries. Qt and GTK are the big players, stuff like qxwidgets and tk exists, but they are not popular enough to provide alternative tools for every task you want to do.

It is completely possible to build a desktop without Qt.
I've run a Gnome desktop without Qt for quite some time. However I upgraded to better hardware and stop carrying that much about it recently. Also the binhost saves a lot of trouble with those.
