Rebuilds don't cause a different solution in the graph afaik; so, I wouldn't see how that would form a big problem. I also think this would still be covered by preserved-rebuild and/or revdep-rebuild afterwards. In any case, I've not been experiencing problems with this; but am interesting to know how this could go wrong, as no backtracking works for me and I hope it will continue to do so. Btw, this also makes me question how proper pkgcore can do rebuilds. > > > Ironically, launching the same emerge command twice, will take > > > more or less the same time. > > > > Determinism results in more or less the same time, that's correct; > > proper benchmarks would show you a similar result. > > I guess he means that the (according to the file sizes) extensive > caching doesn't seem to be of much use. For that, _all_ caching would need to be removed before the first run; when there is a mention of "the same", I doubt this was done at all. -- With kind regards, Tom Wijsman (TomWij) Gentoo Developer E-mail address : tom...@gentoo.org GPG Public Key : 6D34E57D GPG Fingerprint : C165 AF18 AB4C 400B C3D2 ABF0 95B2 1FCD 6D34 E57D
