Oh, I didn't said that you shouldn't use it. But it isn't in $PATH anymore - that was what I wanted to make clear. And you're right that equery is slow, and it doesn't has some of qpkg's features. I have made a symbolic link /usr/local/bin/qpkg-old to qpkg (qpkg-old because I have portage-utils installed) So long, tkr -- Ahhhhhh... the smell of cuprinol and mahogany.
