The -v had no effect (I assume you meant to add it as below) allan ~ # emerge -v @preserved-rebuild These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order: Calculating dependencies... done! emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "dev-lang/python:3.3". (dependency required by "@preserved-rebuild" [argument]) thanks, allan PS adding --ignore-default-opts made no difference
