Hi all,

I've been seeing this error during every emerge for a while now, and I
don't know where it comes from, or what it means:

* Updating desktop mime database ...
* Updating shared mime info database ...
* Updating icons cache ...
The generated cache was invalid. [ !! ]
* Updating scrollkeeper database ...
* GNU info directory index is up-to-date.
* IMPORTANT: 2 config files in '/etc' need updating.
* See the CONFIGURATION FILES section of the emerge
* man page to learn how to update config files.

google was no real help, and b.g.o doesn't have anything either. I
haven't noticed any adverse effects...

any ideas?

thanks,
