I just noticed this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # euse -i jpg global use flags (searching: jpg) ************************************************************ no matching entries found local use flags (searching: jpg) ************************************************************ no matching entries found [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # euse -i jpeg global use flags (searching: jpeg) ************************************************************ [+ CD ] jpeg - Adds JPEG image support local use flags (searching: jpeg) ************************************************************ no matching entries found [EMAIL PROTECTED] / # Are you putting in jpg or jpeg or is it a typo in the email? Dale :-) :-) P. S. I can send you a list of all the packages that use the jpeg USE flag on my system if you need it. Faster than a emerge -e world at least.
