[gentoo-user] emerge --security
Good evening all, Just before I had to kill-file a thread earlier today, I saw mention of emerge --security Running this on my system produces: //garbanzo/root # emerge --security !!! Error: --security is an invalid option. This is with portage-2.0.51.22-r3. Is this an option in an upcoming version?

I run glsa-check via cron, even security updates should be inspected before applying them. -- Neil Bothwick Ninety-Ninety Rule Of Project Schedules - The first ninety percent of the task takes ninety percent of the time, and the last ten percent takes the other ninety percent of the time. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I thought there was a new emerge option that I wasn't aware of yet. Thanks for the reply, John -- If voting could change anything, it would be illegal pgpYPkaI09Wjh.pgp Description: PGP signature

I do that, but my cron script also runs "emerge -uDNf world" so I have the distfiles ready to go. -- Neil Bothwick Why do they sterilize the needles for lethal injections? signature.asc Description: PGP signature
