Any reason why genlop instead of qlop (app-portage/portage-utils)?

IIRC once upon a time there was a change of portage log output and
genlop failed me but qlop didn't.  I changed to qlop and never looked
back.

See bug #407845 and the workaround.

I believe mythtv-0.25 has a fix (the fix was committed to git 7 months
ago) but gentoo hasn't packaged that yet, see bug #411547.

[gentoo-user] strange emerge sync output order

2012-04-13 Thread Kerwin Hui
Hi all,

I have the following cron script on stable hardened amd64:

#!/bin/bash
# /etc/cron.daily/syncportage.sh script
emerge --sync 2>&1
# end /etc/cron.daily/syncportage.sh script

together with the following setting in root's fcrontab (almost exactly
like vixie-cron's crontab):

#begin crontab
# Global variables
SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=root
HOME=/
# check scripts in cron.hourly, cron.daily, cron.weekly and cron.monthly
59  *  * * *rootrm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.hourly
9  3  * * * rootrm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.daily
19 4  * * 6 rootrm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.weekly
29 5  1 * * rootrm -f /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.monthly
*/10  *  * * *  roottest -x /usr/sbin/run-crons && /usr/sbin/run-crons
#end fcrontab

The resulting fcron mail has the strange structure:

* Welcome message from (mirror)
* receiving incremental file list
* timestamp.chk
* rsync statistics (Number of files, ... , speedup)
* Welcome message from (mirror)
* receiving incremental file list
* deleting .ebuild.x; a list of files transferred
* rsync statistics
* q: Updating ebuild cache ... 
* q: Finished (number) entries in (time) seconds
* >>> Starting rsync with (mirror)
* >>> Checking server timestamp ...  

Am I doing something wrong?  I'd expect the ">>> Starting rsyncing with
(mirror)" and ">>> Checking server timestamp" to be at the
beginning(ish) rather than the end.

Thanks.

Kerwin
