Just a quick query guys.

Yesterday I did an

Code:
emerge --sync && emerge -uDNav world


and there were three package updates and about 120 or so re-emerges (mostly x11 stuff). I did the same thing today and I'm getting a similar thing happening, there are three packages that need updating and about 100 re-emerges.

Anyone got any idea what's going on here?

Ok, so your saying that the use flag scheme in portage has changed for some packages, hence the long list of re-emerge today and yesterday?

I get the following use flags in yellow

(-X%*)



Sorry for my ignorance, I always wondered what a yellow use flag meant.. :oops:

Moved from Portage & Programming to Duplicate Threads, please see this topic: Emerge --newuse (-N) gives loads of USE="X%*" or (-X%*).
