|| The 1.8.9 portage tree is an potentially unstable development tree in |
| 13 |
|| testing. World update exists in the 1.8.8 tree, you can emerge |
| 14 |
|| portage-1.8.8-r1. Portage 1.8.9 is masked for a reason. |

|| World update will be added to 1.8.9 at some point; it has been removed |
| 17 |
|| because it's going to be rewritten. The new world update will produce a |
| 18 |
|| slightly diferent result from the old one. I don't know the exact |
| 19 |
|| timetable, but we'll have a stable unmasked 1.8.9 portage with world |
| 20 |
|| update by the time 1.0 is out. |
