Yes, and when i return to that shell some time later i scroll through the package messages and do what needs to be done, followed by a etc-update, revdep-rebuild, depclean and sometimes lafilefixer. I am not saying, i update like fire and forget :-). Everyone should use a setting that one sees fit. That's why we use Gentoo, right? Because we have that choice. If you have a well working setup in place, then it is only right to use it. Can't remember how long it take exactly, but here is the ouput of a whole system rebuild with a kind of funny estimate :-). Shows you all the packages, too. Just wondering myself right now, why there are N and U packages, when emerge -uDN world shows nothing to do... emerge -pe system world | genlop -p These are the pretended packages: (this may take a while; wait...)
