16 yes but these packages can you get with "glsa-check -t all".
17 I have an server with gentoo and run every day "emerge --sync -q" and
18 "glsa-check -t all", also i think about "revdep-rebuild -pq"

20 I'm sure that i don't get all packages which need to update, but if one of them has an seucirty issue i will get it, and this is enough for me ;_)
