I did an "emerge sync" today and this is the version that I have available:
net-im/gaim
Latest version available: 0.66-r3
Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ]
Size of downloaded files: 2,753 kB
Homepage: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/
Description: GTK Instant Messenger client
I haven't upgraded any packages yet but the command to upgrade "all" already installed
non-essential packages is:
emerge -u world
or as a test you can pass the above with the -p (pretend option). "emerge -up world"
This is actually covered in the Portage Manual. Pretty good read for someone like me
that is new
to Gentoo.. :)
