-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I would like to know if it is possible to remove a port/package and all of the dependencies it installed that are not needed by other applications. Example: I installed Nautilus and some Gnome games but don't want them installed any longer. However, if I remove the package itself, doesn't it leave all of the other dependencies out there? Upgrading my system takes forever now that there are a ton of libs and such installed by these applications. So, if anyone can point me in the right direction for doing this I would greatly appreciate it.
