Portage today suddenly wants me to install all this, and I haven't been emerging anything new for a long time ( 2months ). Obviously the machine is a server with minimal packgaes, and i hate to see all this emerge junk with emerge -p world
Has anyone else recently had this problem? what can i do to solve it?

maybe your USE flags changed, eg. /etc/make.conf changed. On my system an emerge -ep nmap also shows xfree etc as dependencies...

If the deps aren't true deps, please report it as a bug on bugs.gentoo.org.

I've got the same situation as cpF - however I rsync and emerge -u on a weekly basis (as nedessary)

now when I try emerge -pu world, it shows a list of what looks like everything on my system with the (N) - emerge -s xyz shows the same version is already installed

this sympton showed up on sunday evening - subsequent rsyncs have not helped (unsurprisingly) - given the call to spare the bandwidth, I'm holding out for a solution having spent the last 2 days hovering in the forums - so far this is the only post that reports anything similar to what I have here

to clarify, I've been running glibc-2.3.2-r1 for about a month now, but as it hasn't caused any problems with emerge -u previously, I don't have any good reason to feel this is the culprit

anyone else in the same boat or have a solution?

Check to see if your world file still exists and contains your installed packages: /var/cache/edb/world.
If not, run 'regenworld'.

thanks for the tips spyderous

already run regenworld and that has gone some way towards fixing things but there are still a few things amiss

- bash prompt now only states bash-version#

- rsync doesn't do the db update

I'm just surprised that no-one else hit this bump - I was away for the weekend, came back, rsynced and here I am - I did nothing I haven't done before, so I was expecting a flurry of posts as with the md5-corruption/portage thing a month ago

any insights into what might have unleashed this?

That sounds really weird. Have you tried re-merging portage?

a quick emerge -p portage gave me this
Code:
[ebuild   R  ] sys-apps/portage-2.0.48-r1


an even quicker look at the docs at www.gentoo.org did not help me with the R flag (nor did man portage)

time to RTFM or do you have a quick solution? close to way past bedtime here...

OK RTFM'd and the R flag looks like a replace for portage - sounds about right I guess
