Well, as it is, I copy the emerge.log file over so that I have the actual build time when I copy over the binaries and distfiles. Thing is, when I emerge the binaries, it adds that to the file too. So, half of file is build and half binary. Of course, the binaries is a lot faster so genlop just has a bad day. ;-) Guess I have to tolerate it for now. Dale :-) :-)
