Subject: [gentoo-user] Creating binary packages before updating them

1 Normally, when I'm about to update an important package, I back it up
2 first using quickpkg. I'm often in a situation though where many
3 important packages are being updated in a world update. Normally, I
4 have to manually quickpkg every one of them.

6 Is there a way to tell emerge to do this on its own? That is, create
7 binary packages of every package that it is replacing?
