Short summary :
I just emerged the latest gs-sources (r7), but there's no new directory
in /usr/src for it.


Longer description:

I started with an emerge --update --pretend --deep world, and got this:

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies  ...done!
[ebuild U ] sys-kernel/gs-sources-2.4.25_pre7-r7 [2.4.25_pre7-r6]
[ebuild U ] app-arch/gzip-1.3.3-r4 [1.3.3-r3]
[ebuild U ] net-dns/djbdns-1.05-r12 [1.05-r9]
[ebuild U ] sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.35 [1.34]
[ebuild U ] net-ftp/pure-ftpd-1.0.18-r1 [1.0.16b]

I then added --fetchonly, and dropped the --pretend, and it seemed to
work (ie. fetch all the required files).

I then dropped the --fetchonly, and from the scroll-buffer on putty, I
can go back and see at least the last two emerged properly. From the
emerge-log, it seems everything worked, here's the bit about gs-sources :

I would have expected a new directory in /usr/src, like I have gotten
previously. But, here's a current listing of /usr/src :
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Jun 16 20:55 .
drwxr-xr-x 14 root root 4096 Jun 24 10:23 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jun 15 14:08 .keep
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 Jun 16 20:55 linux ->
linux-2.4.25_pre7-gss-r6
drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 4096 May 19 01:32 linux-2.4.25_pre7-gss-r3
drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 4096 Jun 3 18:22 linux-2.4.25_pre7-gss-r5
drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 4096 Jun 16 21:22 linux-2.4.25_pre7-gss-r6

What happened to the new linux-2.4.25_pre7-gss-r7 directory I was
expecting ?

Here's the results of a "find . -name \*gs-sources\* -mount" (the only
directories I have mounted are /var/spool/mail, /var/cache/squid,
/var/log, and /boot)

That file above in "./var/cache/edb/dep/..." looks suspicious to me.

Now, when I "emerge --pretend --update --deep world", it says there's
nothing to build.

So, what happened to my new kernel sources, and did my other packages I
just emerged (djbdns, gzip, e2fsprogs...) work ?

Thanks,

Chris
