Hi, I normally do "emerge -uDvN @world" (or in other words "emerge --update --deep --verbose --newuse @world"). Right now, it tells me this:
Total: 0 packages, Size of downloads: 0 kB I also --depclean on a regular basis to remove any unneeded packages. Right now, it tells me this: No packages selected for removal by depclean Based on those two commands, I'm led to believe I have a fully updated system. So, then, I am curious why when I do "emerge -e @world" it tells me this: Total: 1432 packages (9 upgrades, 2 downgrades, 14 new, 1407 reinstalls, 1 interactive), Size of downloads: 76,235 kB How is that possible? Where do those upgrades, downgrades and new packages come from? What is missing from my traditional "-uDvN" command that is causing me to miss some of those updates? Thanks, Paul
