first thing I do if I have problems after a -uD is a revdep-rebuild as it will go through and recompile anything thats had its libraries change.

Gentoo's fine, Charlie. :) How you doin'?

It was actually nothing more than abject stupidity that caused the problem. The entire update to the latest profile (2005.0) went great, but after running etc-update I borked some stuff up.

Just a flesh wound...nothing to see here...move along.

/me looks up the man page for emerge

Ouch! Bet that took a while :-) I think I'll stick to my binary updates: `apt-get update; apt-get upgrade`
