I unermerged it and ended up emergeing a number of other packages in the process of getting it back. Now it is done one of those packages, qt, complains of missing virtual/glu when I try and emerge world. Can someone explain this whole virtual thing and how to fix, or give a reference in the docs? BillK * I have noted a couple of other emails along these lines, but havent seen any fixes yet.
