NAME
       env-update - updates environment settings automatically

SYNOPSIS
       env-update [options]

DESCRIPTION
       env-update  reads  the  files in /etc/env.d and automatically generates
       /etc/profile.env and  /etc/ld.so.conf.	Then  ldconfig(8)  is  run  to
       update  /etc/ld.so.cache.  env-update is run by emerge(1) automatically
       after each package merge.  Also, if you make changes to /etc/env.d, you
       should  run env-update yourself for changes to take effect immediately.
       Note that this would only affect	 new  processes.   In  order  for  the
       changes	to  affect  your  active  shell, you will probably have to run
       source /etc/profile first.

OPTIONS
       --no-ldconfig
	      Do not run ldconfig (and thus skip rebuilding  the  ld.so.cache,
	      etc...).
