All logs go into $PORT_LOGDIR (usually /var/log/portage) if it is defined. These are the full output of each emerge command, plus another file containing the elog/ewarn/einfo/error output. The ELOG files contain only the e-messages you specify and go in $PORT_LOGDIR/elog. So you should be seeing logfiles in both if everything is working correctly. Note that not all ebuilds output e-messages, so you won't get ELOG info for every package you emerge. -- Neil Bothwick - We are but packets in the internet of Life-
