Hi guys, I just wrote a GLEP, proposing a solution to the problem that updating f.ex. openssl, requires recompiling almost world (kde,mozilla,galeon,wget,irrsi,python etc.) - and breaks your system if you don't complete all this, while you are running (since the old openssl files are removed after the openssl upgrade -and programs that haven't been recompiled will break). You can see it here: http://vsen.dk/files/GLEP-Making_updates_never_break_dependencies.txt I hope you like the idea, and the proposed solution. Please comment if you have any questions, as I would very much like to see this happen, so I can run emerge -u world again :) -- Regards, Klavs Klavsen, GSEC - kl@vsen.dk - http://www.vsen.dk PGP: 7E063C62/2873 188C 968E 600D D8F8 B8DA 3D3A 0B79 7E06 3C62 See my new managed CMS Hosting Service at http://www.VirkPaaNettet.dk Working with Unix is like wrestling a worthy opponent.
