That would be emerge. Sorry. Should have been more clear on that. Should look something like this: r...@smoker / # emerge -pv gimp These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] media-gfx/gimp-2.4.6 USE="alsa curl dbus exif hal mmx pdf png python sse svg tiff wmf -aalib (-altivec) -debug -doc -gnome -gtkhtml -lcms -mng -smp" 0 kB Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB r...@smoker / # You may want to consider using a profile that is most closely to what you are doing.
