19 That's why it's different. But isn't it buggy?

21 In my case, probably similar to Robert's the slot of both should be
22 "2.4.20-gentoo-r2" and it would effectively be as much a downgrade if I removed
23 -p as the other files with equal "0" slots, unless I changed the kernel which
24 it was emerged against.
25
26 No doubt whatever gets the new slot doesn't calculate the $KV ?
