You must use --oneshot or -1 to stop it from doing that. HTH, Mark

I followed Gentoo GCC Upgrade Guide: # emerge -uav gcc # gcc-config 2 # env-update source /etc/profile # emerge --oneshot libtool # emerge --depclean # revdep-rebuild But at the and I noticed gcc 4.4 has not been unmerged and my world file is somehow larger. To my surprise, it contains these lines: sys-devel/gcc sys-devel/gcc:4.4 I did full backup before, so I compared world-file before and after gcc-upgrade just to find out, these two lines have been really inserted now, during gcc-upgrade. And my question is: what does it mean? Does my system need now both gcc 4.4 and 4.5? Why is actually gcc in world-file, when it is part of system? Because your forgot the -1 / --oneshot flag when manually upgrading gcc. However, in system, multiple gcc slots do not exist, so if you need gcc:4.4 for backwards compatibility or gcc:4.6 for forwards compatibility, it'll show up in your world file.

Jarry I think you are correct. When you use the -u option, it shouldn't add anything to the world file. Than again, weird things happen from time to time. Take the two entries out and see what emerge says to a emerge -uavDN world which should catch about everything. Then see what -a --depclean says. If it tries to remove the older version then that may be why it was added. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
