Thanks again Alan, |

No I don't have genlop installed but I will try that. |
4 |
|

In /var/log/portage, I didn't actually compare the contents of the duplicates |
6 |
so maybe there is nothing wrong there. |
7 |
|
8 |
The elog/ directories on all three Gentoo installs are empty. Once I review |
9 |
the messages and take necessary action, I remove those entries. |
10 |
|

You say I am using unstable python and stable portage. I am just running what |
12 |
~amd64 wants to emerge. So I think you are suggesting I unmask unstable |
13 |
portage so it can be installed. If so, I will put that on my list of things to |
14 |
try. |
15 |
|
16 |
I am beginning to wonder whether anything is actually wrong here. Usually, |
17 |
when I run in to some issue I find through the mailing lists, the forums, |
18 |
gentoo bugs or just google searches that someone else is experiencing the same |
19 |
thing. So far, I have not seen anything about this. |
20 |
|
21 |
Perhaps my lack of elog/ messages over the last few weeks is just the result |
22 |
that none of the emerged packages contain any messages that would be logged. |

Thanks for you kind help. Please don't spend any more time with this . I'll |
25 |
play around with this including your suggestions. If the situation persists, I |
26 |
will re-post. I don't rely on these installs for daily use anyway so I don't |
27 |
mind if I break something. I use Gentoo because I want to experiment with it |
28 |
and learn from the experience. |

Your help is much appreciated. |
