Hmmm. Very interesting! 'emerge --newuse -p world' gives me a long list of |
5 |
packages, some of which aren't even installed, and which probably aren't |
6 |
depended by anything else. This is odd. |

|

This list also includes updates on a number of packages which are apparently |
9 |
slipping through the cracks when I do a daily 'emerge -u world'. I've been |
10 |
noticing this for some time now. Some packages apparently didn't get |
11 |
registered with 'world' when they're built, and I come on them from time to |
12 |
time by chance and notice the version differences between what's installed |
13 |
and what's available. |

'emerge --newuse -u -p world' gives me a longer list, which is apparently a |
16 |
superset of the above. I would expect the list to be shorter. |
