I emerged gnome-2.6, and it was already upgraded. I didn't not have famd started, and the install suggested that this be started. It says the following. * To have nautilus and gnome-vfs monitor file changes, you should * start the FAM daemon. You can do this to by issueing the * '/etc/init.d/famd start' command. * 'rc-update add fam default' will make FAM start on every boot. This is great, however on my machine the daemon is 'famd', and I believe the rc-update line should be 'rc-update add famd default'. Many newbies may be caught up by this. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge gnome-2.6, nautilus, and gnome-vfs without famd started. 2.The information after the build will suggest this change. Actual Results: It prints out this * To have nautilus and gnome-vfs monitor file changes, you should * start the FAM daemon. You can do this to by issueing the * '/etc/init.d/famd start' command. * 'rc-update add fam default' will make FAM start on every boot. Expected Results: * To have nautilus and gnome-vfs monitor file changes, you should * start the FAM daemon. You can do this to by issueing the * '/etc/init.d/famd start' command. * 'rc-update add famd default' will make FAM start on every boot. gentoo root # emerge info Portage 2.0.50-r6 (hardened-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.3.3, glibc-2.3.2-r9, 2.6.4-gentoo) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.4-gentoo i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.53GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.4.3.13 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.58-r1 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.7.7 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -mcpu=i686 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /etc/tomcat /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qm ail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -mcpu=i686 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://open-systems.ufl.edu/mirrors/gentoo http://mirror.tucdemonic.org/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu/pub/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X aalib alsa avi berkdb cdr crypt cups esd gdbm gnome gstreamer gtk gtk2 guile imlib java jpeg mozilla mpeg mysql nls oggvorbis opengl pam perl pic png python qt readline sdl ssl tcpd x86 zlib"
