hi ! I emerge often with nohup emerge -u world &
And afterwards I check the nohup.out. When I emerge normal wget shows the 72% [=========================> ] 6,746,360 111.27K/s ETA when I emerge with nohup, emerge produces the old style 0K .......... .......... .......... .......... 10% 59.5K 0:06 50K .......... .......... .......... .......... 21% 88.0K 0:04 100K .......... .......... .......... .......... 32% 75.3K 0:04 150K .......... .......... .......... .......... 43% 86.7K 0:03 200K This makes sens in my opinion because the output in the other way would produce up to 100 Lines like this in my log-file: 20% [=======> ] 6,746,360 111.27K/s ETA 40% [============> ] 6,746,360 111.27K/s ETA 50% [=================> ] 6,746,360 111.27K/s ETA 60% [=======================> ] 6,746,360 111.27K/s ETA 72% [=========================> ] 6,746,360 111.27K/s ETA I have only one wget on my system. Wget changes it's behavior in relation to where the output goes. I think the 72% [=========================> ] 6,746,360 111.27K/s ETA for stdout and the 0K .......... .......... .......... .......... 10% 59.5K 0:06 50K for all others like 2> and so comments?
