-r1, -r2, -r3 are also usually fixes to the ebuild itself. For |
2 |
example, one -r5 ebuild had the Xorg modular deps included in it, |
3 |
while the -r4 did not. So it also affects your own system and how it |
4 |
interacts with portage. |
5 |
I suggest you use -l flag with emerge, or head/cat the Changelog |
6 |
inside the ebuild which is asked to upgrade to -rX and see if it is |
7 |
important or not before thinking of masking all the -rX updates. |
