Hi, it seems, something has screwed up my system.
The symptoms are: Updateing a certain package with emerge (which successfully compile and install that package) has no effect. Next time exactly the same package is reported again as to be updated. And qsearch reports that my metadatabase has gone with the wind and I have to do a 'w -m' as root, which helps for that moment, but next it is again not present. I think (read:dont know for sure) that the eix-sync && emerge -pv --verbose --update --deep world has "killed" it. Unfortunately I am not that deeply involved in the internal data handling of the gentoo package manager to have an idea what is going wrong here. What can I do to fix this problem ? Kind regards and have a nice weekend! mcc -- Please don't send me any Word- or Powerpoint-Attachments unless it's absolutely neccessary. - Send simply Text.
