Oddly enough, I just added a package that I don't have installed to my |
| 10 |
world file, and did emerge -uvD world and it didn't complain (or remove |
| 11 |
it from my world file). I know this hadn't used to be the case though. |

So yeh, I guess you can just copy the old world file across and do |
| 14 |
emerge -e world. |
