I did emerge =gnome-base/gnome-3.2.0, and unmasked/keyworded by hand the necessary packages. But maybe just check that the "**" is not in any file on /etc/portage/package.keyworks/* (except perhaps the ones I'm using). If there is no "**" keyworkd, no non-live ebuild should be installed. Oh, and also in /etc/portage/package.unmask/*, of course. Good luck. -- Canek Peláez Valdés Posgrado en Ciencia e Ingeniería de la Computación Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México
