You are running xorg-x11-6.8.x.
The stuff looks like this: [blocks B ] <=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 (is blocking x11-drivers/xf86-video-tga-1.1.0) [blocks B ] <=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 (is blocking x11-drivers/xf86-video-s3-0.4.1) [blocks B ] <=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 (is blocking x11-drivers/xf86-video-cyrix-1.1.0) ... etc. You're right, I'm running 6.8. Anyway, thanks for the link to the upgrade guide. I'll mess with it when I get some free time. -- john -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
