It's sys-apps/portage-2.1.11.9 My /etc/portage/package.use is attached. I start my USE with "-*" so I have to put a lot of stuff in package.use. Anyhow, I ran an update world. When I ran etc-update, here are the changes it wanted to make to package.use... 1) -app-emulation/qemu-kvm sdl +# move app-emulation/qemu-kvm app-emulation/qemu +app-emulation/qemu sdl So they changed the name. No problem. I'll do this manually. 2) -media-video/mplayer iconv ?!?!? But, but, but... on my first attempt, the update refosed to run, claiming that "iconv" is required if I specify "truetype". Now 5 minutes later, it wants me to remove the "iconv" flag. 3) -www-client/midori deprecated No bleeping way! * Short story Flash does not work on linux midori without this option * Long story. See "I got midori working, including Flash" which I posted on the 15th in this forum. The Flash binary is GTK+:2 and only works if linked with GTK+:2, which "deprecated" causes. The default install links against GTK+:3, which seems to be ABI-incompatable with Flash video (sound still works). BTW, this install is on my "media PC" hooked up to my 50" plasma TV, not my regular working machine. I went and deleted the new config, so I don't accidentally enable it it some day. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
