Lets follow this logic. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
You blindly wanted to re-emerge all of world because an over-reaching gcc |
| 25 |
upgrade guide said so. Coincidentally, there was a monumental libpng cock-up |
| 26 |
hanging around which emerge -e world just happened to fix. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
And this somehow validates the gcc upgrade guide? |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
You just happened to have a fortunate side-effect at the right time. Doesn't |
| 31 |
change the fact that the author of the guide wrote a misleading document. |
