Note that "qpkg & etcat" is deprecated and a use of equery is encouraged. All are in 'app-portage/gentoolkit' package. Check the einfo messages at the end of the install and move qpkg&etc if you wish. Just checked (very quickly) and didn't found a replacement option (--dups) for equery. Somebody? Almost forgot there is yet another tool: "app-portage/portage-utils" written in C IIRC, it's very fast. HTH. Rumen
