hello ciaranm, well, do you have a solution for this? See, basc, the client of gentoo-stats.org, needs read-access on /var/log/emerge.log to get the average mergetime of gcc. But unfortunately, the /var/log/emerge.log only has read-access for root and group portage. Others don't have any rights on it. I really can't understand this, because every user can get information of every package, which is installed (and the whole package-list) with `qpkg` without to be root or in the portage group. So why is /var/log/emerge.log restricted so hard? Okay, so how to do this then? > Oh, and even if it would be ok it would still be broken as $ROOT is > missing. yeah, you're right, I've forgotten this, because it also works without $ROOT. -- http://de.gentoo-wiki.com Alexander Mieland (aka dma147) http://www.gentoo-stats.org Registered Linux-User #249600 http://www.php-programs.de GnuGPG-ID: 209D65B5 http://www.affen-in-not.de www.php-programs.de/dma147.asc
