 * IMPORTANT: 10 config files in '/etc' need updating.

Scanning Configuration files...
Automerging trivial changes in: /etc/conf.d/crypto-loop
Automerging trivial changes in: /etc/modprobe.d/pnp-aliases
The following is the list of files which need updating, each
configuration file is followed by a list of possible replacement files.

Please select a file to edit by entering the corresponding number.

Where are the other 6 files that need updating?

Files with trivial changes will be updated automatically as indicated.

Yes, but it shows only two of them. Add the two it explicitly requires to 
update, and you still see that, of the initial 10, only four files are 
updated.

The http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Maintain_Gentoo_-_%22Best_Practices%22#dispatch-conf
suggests the use of dispatch-conf over etc-update.

"But the most important thing is, that it keeps record of which 
configuration files you edited and auto-updates those that you haven't 
touched. After it has collected the necessary information it will most 
often only prompt you for intervention where it is really necessary". 

Thus, it seems that my etc-update is behaving like dispatch-conf, 
updating some files (the missing six) without notice. This sound 
strange. Shouldn't etc-update automerge them together with the other 
ones that require only trivial changes?

Hi All,

I've go through the handbook and in section 6.c. there is that if the
nptl is included, then there is necessary to remove linux-headers and
install linux26-headers. And there is the problem, the result of it is:

emerge --oneshot linux26-headers
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 3) sys-libs/glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1 to /

message.


Did I something wrong ??? Could someone help me ???

Thanks to all

The documentation updates haven't seem to have been tested before being 
uploaded.. To get this to work properly, you'll need to to use --nodeps as 
well as --oneshot.

I don't think you need --oneshot; that will probably screw things up.
You should do

emerge -C linux-headers
emerge linux26-headers

emerge --nodeps linux26-headers
will work better at this time in the installation.
