I've never seen that, and yes, I've been known to add a package atom to |
| 12 |
the end of the world file when I wanted to update world, and add a |
| 13 |
package at the same time (xfce4 was the last time I think, a month or |
| 14 |
so ago), and didn't want to do it in two commands..... |
| 15 |
|

In that cases I was adding a whole DE, so was also changing lots of USE |
| 17 |
flags, so wanted an emerge -uDavN world to just update all the use flags |
| 18 |
at once.... echo "xfce-base/xfce4" >> /var/lib/portage/world followed by |
| 19 |
emerge -uDavN world worked a treat..... |
