It is my understanding - and please tell me if I'm wrong - that the "r" suffixes on the ends of ebuild versions represent fixes to the ebuild, rather than to the package itself. If that is so, would that mean that category/thing-x.y.z-r2 won't contain anything important (such as security fixes) that isn't already in version x.y.z-r1?
In that case, is there a way to avoid these petty upgrades when I "emerge -u world"? Thanks Robert -- Robert Persson "No matter how much ye shake yer peg The last wee drap rins doon yer leg." -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
