23 What do you mean by running a very new portage versus an older portage?
24
25 I know the difference between stable and the ~amd64 unstable sign.
26 However, how do I specify, or know that I am running at least the most
27 recent stable version of portage?
28
29 I was under the impression that when I did the following
30
31 'emerge --sync; emerge portage; emerge --update --deep --newuse
32 world;revdep-rebuild;revdep-rebuild'
33
34 that portage was brought up to date and all packages with it?
35
36 I have to find time to look over more of the Gentoo docs to see what
37 regular maintenance I need to keep up on.
