Unless you're running some script to sync portage and emerge, when you synchronise portage manually with emerge --sync, it will let you know if there are any new news items before you start emerging any packages. You could get portage to email you all elogs, but I am not sure if this will also email you any news items - I've never used this feature. It may require your own script to do it. -- Regards, Mick
