Well, this didn't seem to work, when I tried to emerge -n @kernels it
said nothing to emerge, after the calculating, etc. and it certainly
did not work. Also, depclean did some other strange things -- on
another system I have it wanted to unmerge dev-util/glib-utils-2.58.3
which is my installed version, but doing an eix on that package, there
seems to be an update. However, doing a world update says 0
packages, so what am I missing?
