Hi, |

I recognized this some time ago! |

When my system is up to date "emerge -pvuND world" shows me: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
> emerge -pvuND world |
| 8 |

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

> Total size of downloads: 0 kB |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Which is normal because an up to date system doesn't have to download |
| 16 |
anything. But when i add the emptytree option "emerge -pveuND world" i |
| 17 |
get this (output reduced): |
| 18 |

So why are there appearing some apps now for which portage has to |
| 35 |
download something? Using eix on sys-devel/binutils and net-dialup/ppp |
| 36 |
tells me that i have exactly those ebuilds listed above installed. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
I think that there have been made changes to this ebuild without |
| 39 |
increasing the version number. For example binutils from 2.16.1-r3 to |
| 40 |
2.16.1-r4. So portage doesn't upgrade this package although there have |
| 41 |
been changes. Or is there a portage option i don't know until now which |
| 42 |
i have to use for getting this apps updated. Am i guessing right in any |
| 43 |
of this cases or is this another problem with portage? |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
Thanks in advance, |
| 46 |
