Thanks for the replies. A follow-up to the latter two replies. emerge regen doesn't seem to clean the metadata of packages that are no longer there (I am talking about overlay packages). Does that mean that I have to clean my /var/cache/edb/dep/OVERLAY in advance or have I missed something? -- > Georgi Georgiev > > < [EMAIL PROTECTED] < < > +81(90)6266-1163 > >
