28 All these packages have been moved to the new category and will be
29 removed from the old one sometime this week.

31 To upgrade follow these easy steps:
32
33 # emerge sync --clean
34
35 to get the latest portage tree. The --clean option will ensure that
36 stale ebuilds are being removed from your local tree.
37
38 # emerge --pretend unmerge <your_p2p_app>
39
40 Without the --pretend option, this will remove your p2p app.
41
42 # emerge --pretend net-p2p/<your_p2p_app>
43
44 And this will remerge the correct version.
45
46 As all future releases of these applications will be made in the new
47 category this upgrade is recommended.

49 Happy filesharing.
