I don't know if it would update, but it doesn't show so with the --ask option. Here is my output emerge --keep-going -j4 -1k --ask --update --deep @system @world These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies \ * A file is not listed in the Manifest: '/LOCAL/local/portage/layman/java-overlay/dev-java/eclipse-ecj/eclipse-ecj-3.4.1.ebuild' | Invalid ebuild name: /LOCAL/local/portage/sys-fs/ntfs3g/ntfs3g-2009.4.4AC.11.ebuild \ * Missing digest for '/LOCAL/local/portage/dev-python/gmpy/gmpy-1.04.ebuild' | * Missing digest for '/LOCAL/local/portage/layman/java-overlay/dev-java/eclipse-ecj/eclipse-ecj-3.4.1.ebuild' | * Missing digest for '/LOCAL/local/portage/layman/java-overlay/dev-java/eclipse-ecj/eclipse-ecj-3.3.0-r7.ebuild' ... done!

Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No] No Thanks for your help. And to Dale, it's no problem to install KDE-4.3.1 on my hardware (I've done so on a different machine from scratch). It's just that emerge --update doesn't like to update. -- Helmut Jarausch Lehrstuhl fuer Numerische Mathematik RWTH - Aachen University D 52056 Aachen, Germany
