Hi!
Can someone describe in a few sentences why it is so dangerous to
install a newer version of glibc.
In a few words. Everything in your system depends on glibc. Normally,
one should emerge world if glibc is updated.
IOW, it means that all utilities/programs use glibc (the DL version).
nptl 0.55 is in a KEYWORDS=-* masked version of glibc

Seems gentoo is using the development gimp-print which is badly broken
in 4.3.18 and 4.3.19. The stable is 4.2.5 which is in portage - went to
that and I can print again.

I have noticed that emerge sync will remove ebuilds that are
installed. Is there any way to disable this? Failing that is there an
option to auto-copy installed ebuilds to PORTDIR_OVERLAY? script/tool?
Thanks!
