It's probably fixed in one of the updates! Why are you posting before you checked that!?!? Use `screen` or `tmux` in place of `less` if you need to scroll back over the results of --pretend before running the emerge. > The main quirk on my mcahines is that I start USE with "-*" on all my > machines. This goes back to when the developers "in their infinite > wisdom", decided to make ipv6 a default USE flag. Why not just use -ipv6 as a global USE flag!?!? I have to admit that the Gentoo devs have in the past made decisions which have caused me to be suspicious of their sanity. But if I disagree with them over a USE flag I just add it to make.conf. Stroller.
