Ahh, I see now what's going on. The problem is that if I do a "-uD" |
18 |
now, and get just the updates, it just "kicks the 290 further down the |
19 |
road" until I next do an "-NuD", which if memory serves has always been |
20 |
the recommended way of updating - according to the gentoo wiki/doco. I |
21 |
might as well get it over and done with now... |

Yes, just tested. "-uD" -> just updates. "-NuD" -> updates + 290 odd |
24 |
rebuilds. |

It's 02:30 Saturday morning in Perth Australia So I'll just kill it for |
27 |
now and kick it off tomorrow sometime. |
