Also show them how you can install any version (well, any version in portage) of that package, and upgrade and downgrade at will. One of my big beefs with debian is you can only really install the latest version of the software, and you can't downgrade without having the older deb packages there already. Gentoo you just emerge the version you want. A *very* powerful (and overlooked) feature I think. -- Alan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - http://arcterex.net -------------------------------------------------------------------- "There are only 3 real sports: bull-fighting, car racing and mountain climbing.
