There's nothing wrong with grip or its help menu. Do you happen to
have gnome-extra/yelp installed? I'm fairly certain the problem here
is that you're missing the Gnome help browser...

They are slotted. Different packages need different versions of
auto{make,conf} to build properly.
They don't take up that much space and ensure the system builds proper
I checked out the KDE split ebuild HOWTO at
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/kde-split-ebuilds.xml.
However, I did not see any mention of how to migrate from the
old-style KDE monolithic ebuild to the new system. I was thinking that
one would do something like this:
# emerge unmerge kde
# emerge -av

Don't look behind the curtain, there's nothing to see here. ;-)

Dave,
Yes, I'm getting them. (I will from answering this message also!) ;-)
It started the same time the list changes started requiring me to
delete the Cc: entry also.
I think this 'conversion' isn't going so well yet.

I'm not even going to claim any expertise in this area. However, off
the top of my head, I can see the following advantages to how Gentoo
does the runlevel:
1) By adding 'softlevel' information to the grub settings, you can
switch between runlevels at boot time instead of having to login,
change
That did the trick - thanks.
I'm not convinced that this isn't an indication of a problem though.
Shouldn't 'emerge grip' have pulled in anything that grip depended on?
Or failing that, shouldn't grip have complained about whatever it was
looking for being missing rather than just silently failin

Oh, I agree that being able to nominate a runlevel at boot time is
a good thing. But I think it would be more consistent to do it
by specifying it the same way that it is specified in inittab or
to telinit, and the same way it is reported by 'who -r'
That is, they should all use numeric runlev
