Whenever I try to update packages (emerge -u), it then cleans the packages by removing the new installed files.

The selected package for removal is always the new one.
The protected package is always the old one.

The result is that I cannot update packages, as it always deletes all the files after installing.

So what I have to do is to first umerge a package, and then install the new one.

What a boring bug ! Can anyone help ?
Thanks !

PS: using portage 2.0.9, I have this problem since installing portage 2.0.8

Sounds weird...try an emerge rsync && emerge -u portage, before doing another emerge --clean <something>. Could be a bug which has been fixed in 2.0.11...just a thought.
