Hi,

Lately I've been seeing a strange behaviour in updates. After doing an
--update on a package, I get "no packages selected for clean", meaning
the old version of the package is still considered merged.

If I then do an emerge of another package, the autoclean suddenly "sees"
the old version of the updated package and cleans it. Also if I
explicitly run "emerge clean", the old version gets unmerged.

Is this a bug, or has the behaviour of --update really changed? It
wasn't like this before

Anders

Please post a bug if you can reproduce this.

I don't have time to post a bug right now, but I can confirm seeing this
too. It's happened a couple times, usually with... *sighs as his mind goes
blank* Long day, sorry. I'll send the name of the package when I can think
of it.
