Did the emerge complete without error? The answer that question is the same as the answer to yours. It looks like you have gone a long time without updating, so if you hit problems, and you do have one block there, a simple "emerge --ask @system" /may/ be a better place to start. I'd also drop -v from the invocation as it is the main cause of your "spurious debugging/tracing info". emerge is verbose enough on its own and will give you plenty of feedback if something isn't quite right, -v just buries the important information in noise. -- Neil Bothwick Time is an illusion but never so much as when you're using a modem.
