14 This is pretty cool... thanks.

16 One interesting thing though: currently on my home machine, doing:
17
18 emerge -np `qpkg -I -nc`
19
20 or
21
22 emerge -p world
23
24 or
25
26 emerge -puD world
27
28 brings up three different orders for the list of packages to emerge. The "-p world" has
29 fewer packages, but the other two have the same number but in different orders. I suppose
30 that might just mean that order's not really significant in this case.
