Hello, emerge update completed successfully, and was fairly uneventful.
Only thing I had to do was unmerge sys-apps/textutils and sys-apps/fileutils
to keep out an error message from emerge (--verbose pointed in right
direction).
Would it be a good idea to now unmerge to old packages? Or is it safe to
leave them? I'm wondering whether there might be a lib or two left over.
