A message printed to the terminal at the end of the emerge run... |

which is hidden by the output from the subsequent commands. |

It is run when you choose to run it, it never happens automatically |
| 26 |
(unless there is a flag I don't know about). You could drop "emerge -a |
| 27 |
@preserved-rebuild" into the alias, between the emerge world and |
| 28 |
dispatch-conf. There's no harm in running it when it is not needed. |

|
| 30 |
% sudo emerge -a @preserved-rebuild |
| 31 |
emerge: 'preserved-rebuild' is an empty set |
| 32 |
emerge: no targets left after set expansion |
