1 When running `eix-test-obsolete' after update world and revdep-rebuild
2 I get a list of 14 pkgs under the heading as listed below.
3 What does this mean... I'm running ~x86 and have been for yrs so the
4 ones that show `U' should have gotten updated during ... -vuD world.
5
6 root # emerge -vp dev-lang/nasm
7 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
8 [...]
9 [ebuild U ] dev-lang/nasm-2.02 [2.00] USE="-build -doc" 713 kB
10
11 Shows it will be updated. So why is -vuD world missing this pkg (and
12 the others)?
13
14 Some.. maybe all show piles of dependencies and some ..(the ones I've
15 grepped so far) do not appear in world file.
16
17 I guess I don't understand how the system got these packages but
18 appears not to know much about them.
