It's effective on installation only and will remove all existing packages that were not explicitly or transitively selected for installation. > --remove-categories Accessibility,Audio,Debug,Devel,Doc,Games,Video ^ Ditto. This option is for removing packages from an installation, selected by category. If you also select them to be installed at the same time (via package name or the same or another category), then the package(s) in question will be re-installed (i.e. removed first, then installed again).
