"But the most important thing is, that it keeps record of which configuration files you edited and auto-updates those that you haven't touched. After it has collected the necessary information it will most often only prompt you for intervention where it is really necessary". Thus, it seems that my etc-update is behaving like dispatch-conf, updating some files (the missing six) without notice. This sound strange. Shouldn't etc-update automerge them together with the other ones that require only trivial changes? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Add the two it explicitly requires to update, and you still see that, of the initial 10, only four files are updated. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

[gentoo-user] Is this normal?
At the end of the emerge process... * IMPORTANT: 10 config files in '/etc' need updating. * See the CONFIGURATION FILES section of the emerge * man page to learn how to update config files. piggy ~ # etc-update Scanning Configuration files...
