What you want is a weekly cron entry to the effect of: emerge sync > /dev/null 2>&1; emerge -uDplv world That will tell you what new packages are available and tell you what has changed. The only difference between this and rhn is that your computer needs to be online at the time of the cron job where as rhn will email you and you can pick it up the next time you go online.
