30 That's the one I meant, and I assume that everything hosted on our infra
31 can considered to be official somehow.

33 And this what was shown to me from the emerge.

36 You should consider reading upgrade guide for this release:

40 WARN: postinst
41 You must rebuild all drivers if upgrading from <xorg-server-1.8
42 because the ABI changed. If you cannot start X because
43 of module version mismatch errors, this is your problem.
44 You can generate a list of all installed packages in the x11-drivers
45 category using this command:
46 emerge portage-utils; qlist -I -C x11-drivers/
