Wasn't following this thread closely when it began...

What is @preserved-rebuild ?

workstation ~ # @preserved-rebuild -p
-bash: @preserved-rebuild: command not found
workstation ~ # e-file @preserved-rebuild
No matches found.
workstation ~ # e-file preserved-rebuild
No matches found.
workstation ~ # preserved-rebuild -p
-bash: preserved-rebuild: command not found
workstation ~ # emerge -a @preserved-rebuild
emerge: 'preserved-rebuild' is an empty set
emerge: no targets left after set expansion
workstation ~ # emerge -a preserved-rebuild

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "preserved-rebuild".

emerge: searching for similar names...
emerge: Maybe you meant any of these: app-portage/smart-live-rebuild, app-admin/chef-server-webui?
