yeah.. just do this:
that will update portage and then update your system, including the deps.. the -D is the short option for --deep which makes portage traverse the dependency tree and update that as well as the packages in your world file.. you have to include the -D if you want your deps upgraded because anything that you don't explicitly emerge on the command line doesn't get added to the world file.Code:emerge -Uu portage && emerge -UuDav world
Their code will be beautiful, even if their desks are buried in 3 feet of crap. - esr
