Hi Sebastian

slot 0 means
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
I would say man emerge and man portage for a start. As to slots, here
is how I understand it. For example, KDE currently has two slots: 3.5
and 4. Mine lists it this way:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] / # equery list -p kdelibs
[ Searching for package 'kdelibs' in all categories among: ]
* installed packages
[I--] [ ] kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.9-r4 (3.5)
* Portage tree (/usr/portage)
[-P-] [ ] kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.8-r4 (3.5)
[-P-] [ ~] kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.9 (3.5)
[-P-] [ ~] kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.9-r1 (3.5)
[-P-] [ ~] kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.9-r2 (3.5)
[-P-] [ ~] kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.9-r3 (3.5)
[-P-] [M~] kde-base/kdelibs-4.0.4 (kde-4)
[-P-] [M~] kde-base/kdelibs-4.0.5 (kde-4)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] / #
The first in the list is what I have installed, note the [I--] in the
list. The others are in portage but not installed. If I recall
correctly the [ ~] means it is keyworded. The [M~] means it is
keyworded and masked. Although some do, including myself, it is not
recommended to use masked or keyworded packages as they are not fully
tested or may have "issues". I do use them sometimes myself but not for
crucial stuff.
The slots are at the end. Note the (3.5) and (kde-4) at the end of each
one, that is the slots designation for the packages. If you choose, you
can have both slots installed at the same time.
I think the output is pretty much the same for eix, equery and emerge.
Someone correct me if I typed in a boo boo.
Dale
