I think Portage does not consider packages that are not in your world file, if the update is on world (or system). To overcome this, I wrote a little script, called update_orphans.sh. Here it is: <-------cut-----------> update_orphans.sh <----------cut-------------> #!/bin/sh eix -u | gawk '/^\[U\] / { print $2; }' | xargs -r emerge -v1uD exit $? <-------cut-----------><--------cut------><----------cut-------------> I run it immediately after the main emerge, when I have rsync'ed the Portage tree. --=20 Regards, Dave [RLU #314465] =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D dwnoon@ntlworld.com (David W Noon) =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D --Sig_/tQOKo9x=INjKsbmZtrLbqdW Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkvgNk4ACgkQ9MqaUJQw2MlBEwCfR1H1GARxmv2j7QirgdK1JARn QngAn0ahqY2q8bJ67Hn/VKOXpeFTh+rW =cscy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/tQOKo9x=INjKsbmZtrLbqdW--
