Hi,

this is the second time now that I've seen the following behaviour:
I do emerge sync and emerge -up world.

What I would expect is emerge telling me all installed packages which have a newer version. But here is the output I get:
Code:
patrick root # emerge -up world
 
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
 
Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[ebuild    UD] x11-misc/xscreensaver-4.05-r3 [4.06-r2]
[ebuild    UD] media-plugins/xmms-status-plugin-0.9 [1.0]
[ebuild    UD] sys-apps/lm_sensors-2.6.5 [2.7.0]
[ebuild    UD] net-ftp/vsftpd-1.0.1-r1 [1.1.3]
[ebuild    UD] app-editors/nedit-5.3-r2 [5.4_pre20030213]
[ebuild    U ] media-sound/alsa-driver-0.9.2 [0.9.0_rc6]
[ebuild    UD] dev-libs/g-wrap-1.3.1-r1 [1.3.4]
 
patrick root # emerge -p iptables
 
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
 
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild    U ] net-firewall/iptables-1.2.8-r1 [1.2.7a-r3]


Why didn't it suggest iptables?

Code:
emerge -pu --deep world


otherwise only things in /var/cache/edb/world are considered

Strange, there is a whole bunch of apps which didn't made it into /var/cache/edb/world
Now I wonder why :?

--deep follows the package-tree upwards from the packages you emerged.
Without --deep, only the packages you explicitely emerged are considered for updating.
