When I recently ran emerge --update, it upgraded all of my installed
packages that had new ebuilds, but didn't unmerge the duplicates. Is
there a good way to automagically unmerge the older versions of the
duplicates, or does this need to be done by hand?
Thanks,
Nick

Now wat to automagically do it, just manually. Read the Portage User
Guide
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/portage-user.html, as a hint try
ebuild /var/db/pkg/<directory>/<packagage>/package.ebuild unmerge
