Hi,

I'm curious how portage solves its most difficult part (in my eyes).

When installing a dynamic library (by "hand") I have often got an
error messages if the corresponding library is currently in use.

How does portage succeed anyway.
(I have the suspicion that it does not succeed always, since sometimes
only rebooting solves some very strange problems)

How to replace fundamental X11-libaries on a system running X11
or even more suprising, how can I replace a running glibc ?

Many thanks for enlightening me,
Helmut.
