Just to install it requires 3 pkgs to be installed:

Just to install, it wants three packages unless I USE="-kde" (in my
case).

And even then it still cries about xxdiff.  Looking at the other
possible editors in /etc/cfg-update.conf... I don't have a single one
of them installed... so still more install is required.

Using xxdiff is pretty clunky and slow I thought.  I would not
describe it as blazingly fast. 

It may be possible to customize to the point where its faster but it
would take some doing.

Or maybe just by experience in using the tool it would get handier
and faster....

I've not encountered a single conf file where a 3 screen merge was
required to get it right.

But as I mentioned, my conf files are probably way less complicated
than a power users.
