Take note of the Description lines for each package below: [root@noc2] root > emerge ntfs -s Searching... [ Results for search key : ntfs ] [ Applications found : 2 ] * sys-fs/linux-ntfs Latest version available: 1.6.0 Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ] Size of downloaded files: 311 kB Homepage: http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/ Description: Utilities and library for accessing NTFS filesystems * sys-fs/ntfsprogs Latest version available: 1.7.1 Latest version installed: [ Not Installed ] Size of downloaded files: 407 kB Homepage: http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/ Description: Utilities and library for accessing NTFS filesystems Their version numbers and file sizes are close enough to make it seem like they could be the same package, just misfiled in two locations. I had to do more research finding out what was what then I should have. That what the description line is for and this is not a good example of how to use it.
