That may be a way to do it. It isn't what I was thinking of though. I've never heard of this and man emerges has almost nothing to say about it. And `man inject' doesn't now about it at all. The man page makes a brief comment: [ebuild U-] x11-base/xfree-4.3.0 [4.2.99.902] The - represents lack of SLOT information about Xfree. This will occur when the previous version emerged was injected (see inject for more info) or very outdated (so old that SLOT did not exist). Either way, a newer version of Xfree is availabe for your updating delight. But fails to mention where one can `see inject'. That is the only occurance of `inject' in man emerge. I think is was something entered in /etc/portag/package.SOMETHING -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
