No... The -D doesn't stand for deep update, but for deep, so with deep, portage will also check dependencies of the package. Try to do emerge -D kdelibs and you will see that portage reemerge kdelibs. To have a deep update, the right command is emerge -Du/emerge --deep --update... In his case, with emerge --newuse --deep, portage has checked that no use flags has changed for kdelibs and all of his dependencies :) > Bye... Bye ;) > Dirk > -- Xavier
