I beg your pardon, I copied the portage version from the title of your post erroneously. Let me start again: sys-apps/portage-2.3.76 is the *current* stable version of portage, irrespective of what your present state of portage tree, which is out of sync with the mirrors, thinks. The way forward is to mark sys-apps/portage-2.3.76 as ~amd64 *temporarily* only, then emerge it, then re-sync and finally unmark sys-apps/portage-2.3.76 as ~amd64 in your /etc. Following a resync your local tree will be brought up to date and portage will no longer require further updates, since you will have installed the latest stable version (as of this morning at least). > (Sorry, Mick, for the private msg - I always forget that thunderbird > replies directly, and that I have to re-enter the list every time) No problem. :-) -- Regards, Mick
