That's an implementation detail that used to be true but isn't any longer.= =20 That's why it no longer says "[ebuild N ]" for all packages with -e.=20 Doing so caused problems with circular dependencies.

Calling=20 it 'everything' is wrong too as it doesn't do anything with packages that= =20 aren't in world or a dependency of something in world. =2D-=20 Bo Andresen --nextPart2725717.yjeHS921jq Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBGUutm8/kKEzmwNNoRAhXlAJ44YH8AsxWmCvWVy2Io2xFvL3tCwACfR6HI YC6ohyiRiTeb5B+Cxa8lJcM= =r0JG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart2725717.yjeHS921jq-- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
