Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I use following approach: |
| 4 |
emerge --sync |
| 5 |
emerge -DuavN world |
| 6 |
dispatch-conf |
| 7 |
emerge --depclean -pv |
| 8 |
revdep-rebuild |
| 9 |
glsa-check -t all |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Whenever there is something changed on the way, I will start with the |
| 12 |
world command again. Sometimes depclean will remove something world will |
| 13 |
emerge again. I want to be on the save side for those cases. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Anyway I also seem to have orphan packages not found by depclean but not |
| 16 |
updated by emerge -DuavN world |
| 17 |

I would be interested to hear about your outcomes to compare the |
| 22 |
(update)result from you when comparing: |
| 23 |
emerge -DuavN world |
| 24 |
emerge -aev world |
| 25 |
emerge -DuavN --with-bdeps y world |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
To see if some package is needed by anything you might run equery |
| 28 |
depends <whatever package> |
