Portage is excessively verbose in it's output. With -v it dumps all sorts of info to the console and it's incredibly hard to read. It especially likes to print the full reasoning why it doesn't upgrade some package to latest due to a dependency requirement, and it's this that usually hides actual real problems in amongst all the noise. The level of verbosity from portage over the past year really should only be shown with -vvv -- Alan McKinnon [email protected]
