 Hi,
 I have an older gentoo systen which accumulated some cruft over the time

 I want to list all installed SLOTTED packages where more than one
 version is installed. The old (deprecated) qpkg had the option --dups.
 What is the new! shiny! way of doing that?:-)


Try dep from udept (from ecatmur's overlay). Use layman to get it:

emerge -va layman
layman -a ecatmur
emerge -va udept
dep --help


udept is in portage now, just emerge it.

On the side, is it possible to customize the appearance of XDM (I know I can
for GDM)?

Re: [gentoo-user] -unicode USE flag

Hi,
   I wonder if anyone could explain the USE flag 'unicode' better than
the Gentoo description located here:

http://www.gentoo.org/dyn/use-index.xml

unicode Adds support for Unicode

   I think the person who wrote this knows too much. ;-)

   What is unicode and why might an end user want it or need it?


This guide explains it pretty good:

Re: [gentoo-user] mediawiki: Enabling uploads?

 Hello!

 For my wiki site, I'd like to enable uploads. To do so, I
 *added* lines

 $wgDisableUpload = false;
 $wgDisableUploads = false;

 to my LocalSettings.php.

From =1.5 it's the other way around, like so:
$wgEnableUploads = true;

see:

Re: [gentoo-user] Cannot resolve a virtual package name to an ebuild.

 These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

 Is there someone way I can work around this?  I don't seem to be able to
 emerge anything.

Your portage is too old, see bug #114798. Try it without the -u, i.e.:
# emerge -av portage
and then sync again.

Re: [gentoo-user] Where has Aqua Datastudio gone?

 Hi,
 I'm developing DB centered JAVA apps, so I tried out Aqua Datastudio (a
 DB frontent written in pure JAVA), and was rather satisfied w/ it. BUT
 now the ebuild for that app (dev-db/aqua-data-studio) has gone, w/o a
 trace. What happened?

see bug 63257[1]. There's also e new ebuild which seems to be better,
at least that's what the reporter said, bug 120719[2].

  It will unless you installed said package a very long time ago. Portage
  keeps a copy of the ebuild in the vdb when you install something.

 Apparently, I did install it a very long time ago because emerge told me it
 didn't know it. :-(

Well, then grab the ebuild from cvs:

I think you need to update to the latest version of pycrypto, see Bug #120846.

 I think you should file a bug on bugzilla.gentoo.org so the problem
 could be seen by kernel developers
