Neil, As always, thanks. So, is this option new in the last few years or something? I haven't seen it before. Also, it seems that there's no shortcut for that command so instead of emerge -pvDuN @world if I understand then I might try emerge -pvDu --reinstall changed-use @world ??? Certainly a lot more typing. ;-) Thanks. I'll check it out on the next round up updates. Cheers, Mark
