In fact, there is no difference between the various releases after they have |

+Also note that the <c>emerge -uDN world</c> command updates the packages you |

+(packages needed during builds but not when the software is installed). To |
| 59 |
+update those as well, add the <c>--with-bdeps=y</c> option. |
