It doesn't run it or set it as default, it only installs it. To run it
or set it as default is an extra step that you decide yourself when you
want to do it.
depcleaning 9.5 removes the default version, so the obvious thing for
the code to do is set 9.6 as the new default. Maybe the ebuild does it,
maybe it's eselect. Doesn't matter, because something should have
removed those stale symlinks and didn't. This is a reportable bug
Meanwhile fix the symlinks to what they should be using "ln -sfn" and
all will be good in the world.

They are indeed two very different clipboards.
Select and paste with middle button is X cut buffers, been around for

You might need to tweak your startup order in conf.d
a syslogger normally starts very early in the boot process, before even

A remote syslogger needs to start after networking.
