If it's only that you're getting messages re running Revdep-rebuild & given that you're a newcomer to Gentoo, the answer is probably simply that R-r is an imperfect tool & more often than not cb ignored. Sometimes the emerge output warns you to run R-r, but when you do -- with '--pretend' -- , it simply wants to remerge the same package ! So if nothing is noticeably wrong, just ignore the R-r warnings. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : purslow@chass.utoronto.ca ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
