I have looked for a place where it is documented how to do that. I know there is a lot of ways to add packages to those files with <=> and such in front of the package names. Do you have a link to some docs on that? If not, some examples would be cool. Well, I was going to try adding the variable to make.conf as posted in another email. I think that may be better since this seems to be a issue that is "in flux" at the moment. ;-) Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
