Description Tim Rädisch 2003-09-09 14:26:11 UTC

Hi! 
 
Since the last portage-update emerge with the option updates-only does not work. 
 
"emerge -pU ..." or "emerge -kbu ..."  works, but not "emerge -kbU ...:" 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge -kbU --deep world 
2. 
3. 
Actual Results:  
root@gandalf /home/tim> emerge -kbU --deep world 
>>> --upgradeonly implies --update... adding --update to options.
