Subject: [gentoo-server] prioritising security updates

Hey,

Is there anything in Portage which will allow me to view security 
updates, seperate from general version updates?
    

Install gentoolkit if you haven't already and run "glsa-check -t all".
It will show you all GLSA's that affect your currently installed
packages.  You can then "glsa-check -d YYYYMM-DD" to view the resolution
(i.e. what packages to emerge) of the security update.
