Yeah, I have noticed that packages have been lagging behind other distros.
The only real problem that I've had (other then the long compile times when
starting with a blank hard drive) has been packages that don't compile
properly because another package wasn't updated. Since I only upgrade every
few months or when I want one particular package updated right then and
there, it's not a huge issue for me. It's something I can deal with.
Personally, I like Portage much better then any other package manager.
