[gentoo-dev] emerge with portage 1.6.7

[Kevin Gordon]

Hi everyone,
Help with these please:
(1) emerge --pretend parted-1.4.17.ebuild
     error: could not find match for >=sys-devel/automake-1.4_p5

(2) emerge nautilus needs:
      emerge librsvg-1.0.1.ebuild
     fails at rsvg-ft.c (too fast to catch line!)
     Can a bash buffer/screen be increased in size. I lose a lot off the
top.

(3) I am still using linux-2.4.1_pre8-r1. I have collected up to 3 copies of
increasing versions of applications and libraries in many areas. I guess I
can unmerge the older applications but the libraries I am not sure whether
to unmerge. I need a tidy up as more and more upgrades move in as
dependencies. What is the most practical approach?

Best Regards,
Kevin Gordon
