"evmgr -u" downloads a new copy of the evolution mission overlay

"emerge -auvND" by itself does nothing.

"emerge -auvND world" would take everything in your world file and any of the dependencies of them as well (per the D which is short for deep) and it updates them. Also, any packages that have a new use flag will be reinstalled. It'll have verbose output. And before it does anything, it'll ask you if you want it to proceed.

EAD, please stop asking on the gentoo forums. That is why we have our own forums.

And please, before you ask something, could you first do a little bit of reading yourself?

"emerge --help" or "man emerge" would've given you all the info I gave you on emerge. And the evmgr question, I googled and looked at the evolution install guide.
