I'm sure this has been said many times, but as I've just been bitten by this again I figured I'd beat the horse once more.
In an effort to update my system, I ran "regenworld" followed by "emerge -u --deep world", thinking that would cover me pretty well. And yet, upon browsing through my installs with kportage, within a couple of minutes I found that my version of gkrellm was way behind. Upon issuing an "emerge -pu gkrellm" I further discovered four other dependent packages that were, in some cases, several versions behind. I think it's amazing and somewhat ridiculous that I can't simply execute "emerge -u all" and have *every single package* on my system be brought up to date. It's just incredible that there's no one-step, simple way to completely update my entire Gentoo system. So, I guess for now I'm stuck using kportage and qpkg to manually sniff out old packages on my system and to manually upgrade them. Please, please include a universal updating function in Portage soon! Thanks, Eric -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
