Leave out the -u - you already have the current version installed, so an |
| 26 |
update does nothing. And re-emerge sys-apps/file while you are at it. I |
| 27 |
would just issue this: emerge -1a sys-apps/file sys-libs/cracklib |
| 28 |
This builds file and cracklib, using the new python - I assume you have a |
| 29 |
newer version than 2.5.4-r3 installed? If not, I do not understand the |
| 30 |
depclean message. |
