Thanks Nikos. That does seem to get me into the right space. I'm not |
| 21 |
sure I'm understanding all the counts yet though. emerge suggest 992 |
| 22 |
packages. My simple count of existing packages is 994. eclean-pkg |
| 23 |
wants to remove only 1. I had expected it to remove 2. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
What might I be doing wrong here? |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Also, this is raising an additional question for me. What's the |
| 28 |
difference between buildpkg and buildsyspkg. man emerge doesn't talk |
| 29 |
about the latter as best I can tell. |

Thanks, |
