Yup. > make an emerge --newuse --ask world after you have finished. I'm not doing that again! Last time I tried that.... one night, all day long, and it only did 38 of 283 packages or something. It was *horrible.* Next time I try that, I'll totally exit KDE and do it 100% from the command line so as to make sure every single last shred of memory is there to do it. Even then, it'll be over a very long vacation. However, I will start perfecting my setting now, so that when I update/install new things they reflect changes to make the system faster!
