I'm not aware of any. That could be done under Gentoo, via scripting, if someone is willing to put in the work. You would need a background process running "emerge --sync" *AS ROOT* on a daily basis, possibly a cron job. Then it would have to be followed by emerge -pv --deep --update --changed-use @world > updates.txt Then parse the contents of updates.txt for a list of what's ready to update. -- Walter Dnes <[email protected]> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
