Hi All, Kevin's previous message alerted me to the fact that Gaim has been deprecated. Sure enough I see this:
[D] net-im/gaim
Available versions:
[M] 1.5.0 [cjk debug eds gnutls krb4 nas nls perl silc
spell tcl tk]
Installed versions: 1.5.0(00:46:02 08/15/07)(nls perl
spell -cjk -debug -eds -gnutls -krb4 -nas -silc -tcl -tk)
Homepage: http://gaim.sourceforge.net/
Description: GTK Instant Messenger client
However, when I try to update world nothing comes up to tell me that Gaim is
no more:
# emerge -upDv world
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating world dependencies... done!
Total: 0 packages, Size of downloads: 0 kB
Last I recall, portage would tell you that a particular package is no longer
in the tree and ask you to unmerge it. What's up here?
Some additional info:
======================================================
# less /etc/portage/package.keywords | grep net-im/gaim
#
# less /etc/portage/package.mask | grep -i net-im/gaim
#
# emerge -pDv gaim
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
