1 I've been using Gentoo since one of the 2003 releases, and never understood this
2 behavior and was wondering if someone could enlighten me:
3
4 Currently on a 2005.0 install:
5
6 # emerge --sync;emerge -puvN world
7 ( spits out the usual sync output, and ends with this: )
8 These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
9 Calculating world dependencies ...done!
10 Total size of downloads: 0 kB
11
12 So I think to myself, "Self, there's nothing to update."
13
14 But I saw a security update yesterday for 'gaim' which I *have* installed, so
15 for kicks, I do the following:
16
17 # emerge -puvN gaim
18 These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
19 Calculating dependencies ...done!

39 ... why wouldn't "emerge -puvN world" pick up on all of these available
40 upgrades?
