[gentoo-dev] it wants to update my kernel headers.

[Paul]

	Hi;

	On my first 'emerge --world update', I noticed it was
sucking a new kernel to update my sys-kernel/linux-headers.
According to something I read by Linus a ways back, this isnt
a good idea.

http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0007.3/0587.html

	Perhaps this package should only be upgraded if
glibc is being rebuilt/upgraded?

Thanks;

do an emerge --pretend --world update. are you certain that glibc wasn't
getting an upgrade?
