Here's the funny part. I figured out that that file is in the package newt, who would have thunk that. LOL Anyway, I emerge -1 it then when I tell it to start emerging mondorescue again, it skips the package mindi completely. Since I have no clue what this may break, I went back and emerge -1 mindi just in case. It worked this time, since newt was there. May be a bug too. Now back to mondorescue. Anyway, here I go again.
