When did you last sync? Forgot to mention I am ~amd too A few hours earliers, but I synced again before replying. As posted elsewhere, try cranking up --backtrack. I have it set to 20, which avoids almost all issues without hammering dependency calculation times. -- Neil Bothwick I am Zaphod of Borg.

I wonder why yours does that and mine doesn't? I'm the one who usually runs into weird problems around here. What did I miss? LOL Dale :-) :-) P. S. I'm having that problem again with missing replies. I'm still missing one of Neil's from several hours ago. If someone replies and I don't, I may not have it yet. :-/

I did that a long time ago because sometimes it doesn't work out a solution otherwise. It takes longer to build the upgrade list sometimes but it figures out the solution which tends to save time in the long run. You may want to add that to emerge defaults in make.conf. Oh, don't forget to add -1 to so that the world file stays clean. ;-) Dale :-) :-)
