Greetings,
some time back it was pointed out on this list to only use "--changed-
use" rather than "--newuse". So I've meanwhile removed this option (and
also a few others) from my update script which I had created early after
installing Gentoo. It now basically runs

Or does it just cause plenty of package rebuilds without

Changed deps, I don't particularly know about. But --deep - that's to do
with a dependency changing USE flags, and it will

You'd think, but --keep-going tries to recompute dependencies and if
the original emerge crashes in an inconsistent state, that often seems
to push the calculation
Pardon me, but how would using --nodeps be a wise choice to rebuild your

The standard is #6-32 UNC for 3.5" harddrives, and most case-related
stuff including motherboard standoffs. It's M3 standard for 2.5"
harddrives, 5.25" optical drives, etc, etc.
The lengths arent standard in general, though I imagine there's a
fairly standard harddrive length.
