Save this as a last resort. When I run into something weird like this, |
| 39 |
I usually do a emerge -e world. Some may call it over kill but I can't |
| 40 |
count the number of times that doing that has fixed a issue. Issues |
| 41 |
includes weird crashes, processes hogging up the CPU, excessive use of |
| 42 |
memory etc etc etc. The best I can figure, something gets out of sync |
| 43 |
and emerge -e world fixes it. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
FYI. When I update, I run emerge -uvaDN world and have backtrack set to |
| 46 |
30. Even with that, sometimes a emerge -e world fixes what nothing else |
| 47 |
does. I have been known to increase backtrack with no change. |
| 48 |

As mentioned, save that as a last resort. It could be that someone else |
| 50 |
has ran into this same issue and has found a fix. ;-) |
