According to the man page, --prune will remove the old version that I want to keep. I want to have 3.4.4-r1 and (currently) 4.2.2, but I don't care about 4.1.2. When 4.2.3 comes out, I'll want that instead of 4.2.2. -Daniel *This .sig left intentionally blank* -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
