30 I'm not worried about curl. It just happened to be there. This is the
31 list of packages it is supposed to update:

33 root@fireball / # emerge -uvaDN world

35 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

57 Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No] y

59 I noticed this one or twice before. It is compiling the same compiler
60 version twice when it should be upgrading/recompiling two *different*
61 versions. I read before that gcc compiles three times or something but
62 the thing is, it can compile for HOURS and never finish. Usually I stop
63 it and restart emerge and it compiles as it should, one for each version
64 and finishes as it should time wise. I once started the upgrade and
65 went to take a nap. I woke up around 5 or 6 hours later to find gcc
66 compiling twice on the same version. Even libreoffice only takes a hour
67 or so.
68
69 Anyone else see this before? Now to go stop this one and get it to
70 update right and not take all week.
71
72 Thanks.
