Yes, x86 (sorry, I forgot that) |

Good advice. emerge -avuND world indeed seems to find the blocks as |
16 |
self-resolving. However, since it wants to update/install a LOT of stuff... |
17 |
|
18 |
( "Total: 414 packages (286 upgrades, 94 new, 5 in new slots, 29 |
19 |
reinstalls, 2 uninstalls)" ) |
20 |
|
21 |
...I would like to update the thing piece-by-piece, to troubleshoot |
22 |
better whatever happens. |

I could do it, if I have some safety option that allows me to downgrade |
29 |
portage later, in case I find problems. I am quite conservative with |
30 |
this system (it's a machine I use for day-to-day work) and I wouldn't |
31 |
like to have it borked. |

Ok, this seems the safest option. |

Ys, qt is my mainproblem. I have another udev related block in the world |
50 |
update, but *seems* unrelated. |
