The only thing I can think of is that the dependancies for postgresql have somehow changed, running emerge -uDpv postgresql throws up most of what is shown above plus: [ebuild U ] dev-db/postgresql-8.0.1-r3 [8.0.1-r2] -debug -doc -kerberos +libg++ +nls +pam +perl -pg-hier -pg-intdatetime +python +readline (-selinux) +ssl -tcltk +xml2 +zlib 0 kB Have I done something wrong, or has something changed in portage?
