Yes, this happen to me as well. It happened right after I did a fair |
25 |
number of updates that were revealed through emerge -vu --deep world. |
26 |
It appears that one of the packages, which I believe was libpng-1.4, |
27 |
did not have a properly designed ebuild script and it subsequently |
28 |
deleted a number of installed portage packages, including |
29 |
xf86-input-evdev. I don't know all the details, but I definately say |
30 |
some notes on this in the forums section. |
