If something is unmasked, I have to go find the file that unmasked it. I have several since I use autounmask for most of it. Then add in that the new autounmask part of emerge seems to pick a random file to add too. At that point, not much makes sense anymore. < sighs > I don't think there is any really easy way to do this except to just run stable. o_O Dale :-) :-)
