For the right answer, for your patience with a "newbie" to Gentoo and |
| 40 |
for always seeming to have the right answer to any post that you reply to. |

I learned something new today. I *did* try using equery to determine |
| 43 |
the dependencies of pine and uw-mailutils-2004g, but didn't get any |
| 44 |
dependencies listed. Anyway, next time, I won't have to bother the list |
| 45 |
with a like problem. :-) |

Take care, |
