Hi Alan, |
36 |
OK, I preceded to let emerge --depclean do it's job and then ran |
37 |
revdep-rebuild. It said only samba needed to be rebuilt. When that was |
38 |
complete everything seems clean and happy. No more deps to clean out, |
39 |
emerge -DuN world has no work to do and revdep-rebuiild says |
40 |
everything is cool. |
41 |
|
42 |
Thanks to you and Bo for your help so far. |
43 |
|
44 |
Now on to solving why Evolution is crashing. Hopefully I can get a |
45 |
good backtrace. |
46 |
|
47 |
Thanks, |
48 |
