16 This is looking to be my largest update since starting to use Gentoo,
17 and I'm afraid my limited usage of emerge to date will not be enough.
18
19 In essence, I do:
20
21 # emerge-webrsync
22
23 # emerge -1 --deep --with-bdeps=y --changed-use @world
24
25 # revdep-rebuild
26
27 # emerge --depclean
28
29 How do you (or can you) "install the new gcc" *other* than doing the
30 above?
31
32 And how do you "switch to it"? Initially I thought you meant an eselect
33 item, but I see none for gcc.
