No, you're given options while you update with "emerge -uD world", you can compile GCC 3.4.5 but not use it till you "gcc-config" it. You download and unpack the latest kernel, but you CHOOSE to compile it and change versions. If you always choose to upgrade this slotted packages, you'll always have the latest Gentoo as a whole. The Gentoom 2006.0 comes with some of this packages already upgraded to the latest versions, that's the only difference, a install of 2005.1 would have a lot of compiling and upgrading and maybe some configuration to change between versions, other than that, you'll always end up with the latest Gentoo on both machines (if you choose to). > > I'm just curious, because I have to install gentoo on a notebook, but > I want package compatibility with my server. > > Thanks. > > -- > gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list > > -- Daniel da Veiga Computer Operator - RS - Brazil -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GCM/IT/P/O d-? s:- a?
