1 I am currently testing 2006.1 and have a question.
2
3 After installing I do an emerge -system and see two packages that block each
4 other Pam and shadow. I usually just umerge Pam and run emerge -system
5 again. Why are both packages installed with the core system since they
6 conflict? I have seen this for the last few releases.
7
8 Does anyone have a testing protocol for the Gentoo release 2006.1 or any
9 previous release that I could use as a guide. I am currently installing
10 according to the Gentoo x86 Handbook and the Gentoo x86 quick install
11 without doing emerge --sync.
12
13 Currently having a lot of testing fun, just want to do a better job.
