Hi, |
| 6 |
I ran 'emerge -euDv portage |
| 7 |
' and it fixed the problem. Thanks |

D = downgrade, (Best version seems lower) |

Updates packages to the best version available, which |
| 11 |
may not always be |
| 12 |
the highest version number due to masking for testing |
| 13 |
and development. |

This will also update direct dependencies which may not |
| 15 |
be what you want. |

In general, use this option only in combination with the |
| 17 |
world or system |
| 18 |
target. |

Tell emerge to run in verbose mode. Currently this flag |
| 22 |
causes emerge to |
| 23 |
print out GNU info errors, if any, and to show the USE |
| 24 |
flags that will be |
| 25 |
used for each package when pretending. |

Virtually tweaks the tree of installed packages to contain |
| 30 |
nothing. This |
| 31 |
is great to use together with --pretend. This makes |
| 32 |
it possible for |
| 33 |
developers to get a complete overview of the entire |
| 34 |
dependency tree of a |
| 35 |
certain package. |

Thanks. |
