[gentoo-server] small tip how to really "emerge world"

[Tomasz Lutelmowski]

Hi,

If you want to get list of all possible updates after "emerge --sync", 

# emerge -puDvNt world

...might be not enough. If it returns "0 packages" to update, try also this
(it takes very long time to finish, requires app-portage/portage-utils)

# for f in `qlist -IC`; do emerge -puDvNt $f | grep ebuild; done

Regards,
Tomek

you might not get all possible updates, depending on your settings for
EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS in make.conf :-)

I think, if you have a look at the emerge option
--with-bdeps < y | n >
you should be able to get really, really all possible updates with 
emerge and without further gimmicks.

There should not be any difference if you use the mentioned option to 
emerge.


Just my 2 cents.

Unless of course
1) a package is installed
2) that package has been upgraded
3) that package is absent from world
4) no packages exist in world which that package is a dependant of ( via
recursive propogation )

However, imo, such entries should  either be injected into world, or removed
:)

With portage-2.2 you can achieve the same (much faster) with
# emerge -pvnN @installed

(yes, that's really -n in the options)

It's quite possible you have orphaned packages on your system. You might want to 
run 'emerge -p --depclean'.
