1. FYI, There is a short, direct upgrade guide that should be referenced
before upgrading to 1.6:

<http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/x/x11/xorg-server-1.6-upgrade-guide.xml>

It refers to another, short upgrade guide that should definitely be
reviewed before proceeding:

<http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/x/x11/libxcb-1.4-upgrade-guide.xml>


2. The second guide uses a lot of "one-shot" emerges; could anyone
please explain why I'd use a one-shot?

ISTM that if a package is on my system, I'd want it routinely updated.
If I need it only once, then instruct me to unmerge it after it's done!?

TIA
