Besides having rescue instances of system pkgs in /usr/portage/packages , I also try to remember to keep a quickpkg of LibreOffice there too. Creating these files is easy, but is there an approved way of managing them, esp of deleting obsolete versions, beyond a simple 'rm' ? I notice there's a log file 'Packages' in the dir, which suggests there sb some method of removing unwanted ones.
