Hello, emerge update completed successfully, and was fairly uneventful. |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Only thing I had to do was unmerge sys-apps/textutils and sys-apps/fileutils |
| 4 |
to keep out an error message from emerge (--verbose pointed in right |
| 5 |
direction). |
| 6 |
Would it be a good idea to now unmerge to old packages? Or is it safe to |
| 7 |
leave them? I'm wondering whether there might be a lib or two left over. |
