You almost always want emerge -avuND world Which will find every relevant change you made and deal with it. Don't forget emerge -av @preserved-rebuild with recent portage versions revdep-rebuild -p -i followed by revdep-rebuild to find broken stuff and finally emerge -a --depclean to clean out obsolete stuff that's hanging around Don't run these blindly. Eyeball the output, understand what you are looking at. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com

The -N is the key part there. I like to add in the -D just to make sure the packes those use are recompiled if needed as well. Usually I run emerge -uvDN world which will also catch any upgrades as well. ctrl=c should kill the entire process. Dale :-) :-)

I personally use emerge --newuse --update --with-bdeps=y --ask --deep --tree --verbose world The with-bdeps makes sure that my subsequent emerge --depclean --ask runs cleanly. --tree --verbose gives a (overly?) detailed output that I like. allan Glad you mentioned the --with-bdeps=y because I have that in my make.conf file. Saves me some typing. That options is good to include as well. Dale :-) :-)
