Hello there. Strange things happen with emerge. An example:
root # emerge -upD world
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[ebuild U ] sys-apps/util-linux-2.12 [2.11z-r7]
[ebuild U ] sys-devel/binutils-2.14.90.0.5 [2.14.90.0.2]
[ebuild U ] sys-devel/gcc-3.2.3-r2 [3.2.3-r1]
[ebuild UD] app-office/openoffice-bin-1.0.3.1 [1.1_beta-r1]
root #
but, look at this:
root # emerge -p depclean

Why does it want to delete the gimp????
Then, another thing:
root # emerge -pv foomatic
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild N ] net-print/foomatic-filters-3.0.0 +cups -samba
[ebuild N ] net-print/foomatic-db-engine-3.0.0
[ebuild N ] net-print/foomatic-db-20030716 +cups -ppds
[ebuild U ] net-print/foomatic-3.0.0 [2.0.2]
Why doesn't it update foomatic with an "emerge -upD world"?
Thanks everybody.
Stefano
