I don't use -K because my clients have slight differences from the server. Laptop vs desktop, server vs desktop, etc... -K seems to want to install every binary package from the server on the client. That's not desired. -g by itself works fine, and it lets my laptop client rebuild ebuilds that I don't want on the server from source. > Having the remote server run fixpackages may help as it adjusts > the binary's metadata.
