On one of my Gentoo systems, portage wants to re-emerge hardened-sources-2.6.16-r10 and hardened-sources-2.6.14-r7 because of (-doc%). I'm currently using hardened-sources-2.6.18-hardened, but whenever new kernel sources are emerged, I just manually rm -rf the old sources in /usr/src. I guess portage wants to re-emerge the old sources because it thinks they are still installed.
How can I let portage know that those old sources aren't installed anymore? - Grant -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
