 Posted: Thu Jun 27, 2002 11:01 am Post subject: Updating packages |
 |
|
OK, if I understood this correctly: after every succesful I have to do | Code: | | emerge unmerge xyz-123 |
right?? But why just don't update the app?? Are there any ways to see which packages (inc. version numbers) I have installed on my computer?? I remember there was something like or something like that (it's been a while since I used RH, I've been slacking with slack 8 the last time, before Gentoo  ) that showed all packages. Then I could write | Code: | | rpm --list | grep ^Xfree |
to see if I had any Xfree packages installed. What should I type to get same effect in The Portage System??
Kindest regards, Jacob W.

First emerge gentoolkit then use qpkg.
e.g.
#qpkg --dups -v will provide a list of all duplicated packages you have installed.

Opppsss, pretty much duplicates...Do I have to delete one-by-one, or is there any command like emerge unmerge --dups ??
Best wishes, Jacob W.
