It's impossible to update the rsync package in portage. Because "rsync" is interpreted as a command even though a -u was passed before rsync. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. portage -pu rsync or protage -u rsync Actual Results: [root@taylor] /home/matze > emerge -pu rsync emerge: the "sync" action does not support "--pretend." [root@taylor] /home/matze > emerge -u rsync >>> starting rsync with rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage... ... (updated my portage tree) Expected Results: The correct result would have been ro update the rsync package
