Hi Allan, |
| 24 |
I admit to being a bit confused at this point. You ran the |
| 25 |
lafilefixer suggestion and said it fixed things. Did that step |
| 26 |
actually fix your libssl problem? |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
I guess you also ran fsck as it's a good thing to do once in awhile |
| 29 |
anyway. That's cool. |

| 31 |
It seems, however, that you're still going down the path of emerge |
| 32 |
-e @world. Why is that? If it's just to be confident that everything |
| 33 |
is back to the way it should be then I understand that. I've done it |
| 34 |
myself many times in the last 12 years. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Just trying to get a handle on what the actual solution is vs all |
| 37 |
the other things going on in the thread! :-) |

Thanks, |
