|
| 7 |
emerge -DUNe @system |
| 8 |
reboot |

emerge -DUNe @world && emerge --depclean --verbose n && revdep-rebuild |

I was able to extract the last commit for every day between now and |
| 20 |
2020-03-24 and make a branch for it. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
10 have git switch to the next day |
| 23 |
20 emerge -aDUN @world |
| 24 |
30 assess / deal with masked packages |
| 25 |
40 goto 10 |

| 39 |
simplifying the big changes. |
