Hi group,

After my last -uvDN world and subsequent revdep-rebuild and emerge
--depclean I found the main Makefile under /usr/src/linux was missing.
I managed to extract it from the sources and copy it over only to find
that, naturally,  many other files were missing too. I gave up after
the third extraction/copy pass. Which leads to the following:

1) What is the approved method of re-populating that all-important
directory, just untar the sources back in or ?

2)How can I prevent this from happening again? The gentoo docs just
say, after the dust settles,  to do a revdep followed by depclean. Is
that what did the deed? This was my first world upgrade and I sure
don't want to go through this again, if I can prevent it.

Maxim
