Yeah, I realize I wasn't very clear: Tcl and Tk are the only masked packages on my system. Trying: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -pvu tcl tk Indicates that I have the latest versions installed. This won't help with updating world, unfortunately. I am loathe to update world using "~x86" -- really, I just want to find out which packages have newer stable versions. I imagine this wouldn't be a problem if the ebuilds for Tcl/Tk were slot-aware. I *could* downgrade to 8.3.4, and then install 8.4 by hand in /usr/local, but I really don't want to do that.. -Eamon -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
