Try dispatch-conf instead of etc-update. When use_rcs ist set to yes
in /etc/dispatch-conf.conf, and rcs is emerged, you get a backup of

Huh? I once filed a request that *.bck files should be ignored, because
NEdit creates such files per default, and was told that they already
ignore those.

Hi there!
Some may remember me from posting here often. But since a year, I have a
new life, and much less time for sitting at my computer. Sigh. And my
beloved Gentoo got a little outdated.
So, a @world update does not work. I thought I give emerge -e @world a

Hi there!
My @world update did not go well. It was much worse some while ago, so I
just did an emerge -e @world, after manually removing stuff
from /var/lib/portage/world until I got no complaints any more. I had to
remove kde-misc/publictransport and kde-misc/plasma-emergelog for that.

Hi there!
So I installed another 4 GiB RAM into a Gentoo amd64 system that had 4 GiB
already. But it still sees only 4 GiB, not 8 GiB:
