Hi Dale, |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
thanks for the info and help! |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
Just a few seconds before I found the reason for all that reasons :) |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
It seems that -- exactly as you said -- this option prevents |
| 58 |
reemergeing of the same packages again. |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
If you want to force an update "gnu/foobar" (for example) you need to |
| 61 |
submit |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
emerge --selective=n gnu/foobar |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
which temporarily overwrites --changed-deps. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
By the way: I appreciate helps like yours much more than just pointing |
| 68 |
to the obvious docs. ;) |
| 69 |

Cheers! |
