Hi Is it possible to increase the verbosity of the emerge.log, specifically I am intersted in capturing any "messages" that occour during an emerge world, for example if 10 packages get updated and one of them was python then I would need to run python-updater But if that occurred during a long list of packages I would not see that message unless it happened to be the last on the list, or at least I think that is how the system works [I may be in error here] other examples that I have seen or not seen as the case may be would be lmsensors and qemu both of which compile happily but require kernel options for full functionality, I did not see these messages till I recompiled and/or went for a browse in the ebuild. My thoughts came about as I was writing the following mail which I answered myself as I was writing away [how often the way :) ]
cheers stu ps. Directing the output of emerge output in its whole is not what I am looking for, I am looking for an emerge option if possible and if not then I can have a try at a script of some sort to do it later. ###### I have just done my daily emerge and noticed that perl has moved up from 5.8.6 to 5.8.7 does this require me to use the perl-cleaner script prehaps in the way that python-updater is used when python makes a change? Had a look at the ebuild and it seems that I dont since I have only 1 version installed. ##### -- "There are 10 types of people in this world: those who understand binary, those who don't" --Unknown -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
