Common sence is telling me building world rebuilds all the execuables and config files or something a little more intense then just the kernel. However I have not been able to find any instructions on how to "build world" not even in the handbook. I found building a kernel and was able to do that with no problems. But I would like to update my system with any security updates that have occured since 5.3 has come out. Thanks for any tips. Thank you, Joshua Lewis
