Well,
a local Gentoo-guru fixed the problem with etc-update. So the failure to
appears to have been there. As, a newbie I could use some subtantial
advice where, when, and how ect-update should be used (there were 80
config files to take care of) - although when I failed I wasn't even
aware of the problem.
