1 Besides having rescue instances of system pkgs in /usr/portage/packages ,
2 I also try to remember to keep a quickpkg of LibreOffice there too.
3 Creating these files is easy, but is there an approved way of managing them,
4 esp of deleting obsolete versions, beyond a simple 'rm' ?
5 I notice there's a log file 'Packages' in the dir,
6 which suggests there sb some method of removing unwanted ones.
