This is a new release from the NetBeans people. It fixes a bunch of bugs, but
doesn't really provide new functionality.
Upgrading to a new NetBeans does not carry over the globally-installed modules
from the previous release. This is maybe a weakness of the ebuild itself. If
you were interested, I could write/test an ebuild that would attempt to carry
over the installed modules.
thanks. updated portage to 3.4.1. it sounds like your idea to create a better
ebuild that saves a users global netbeans module set is a good idea. if you
develop such a thing, create a new bug report so that we may add it to portage.
