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 :-) :-)

It looks that way, man emerge says /var/log/emerge.log Contains a log of all emerge output. This file is always appended to, so if you want to clean it, you need to do so manually. However, genlop can, AFAIR, be pointed to a different log file, so you could maybe use grep or sed to remove the binary entries and output to a log that is read by genlop. However, I do wonder why the chroot and the host are both writing to the same log file, surely the chroot builds are logged within the chroot. -- Neil Bothwick New sig wanted good price paid. pgpf4cXiSX_ZJ.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature

It comes in real handy when libreoffice, Firefox, qtwebengine and other large time consuming packages are being updated. The bad thing is, I have the full length of build time in the chroot but the binary install on my running system. Is there a way to either stop it from logging binary updates or removing them after it is done? I'd rather it not keep those times in either place really. I can't find a emerge option. It seems to record everything regardless. My reason for this, the binary install times throws off genlop -c and its estimates. Anybody have ideas? There is a long-standing bug [1] regrading this issue but given genlop currently is not actively developed I don't think there will be a solution soon. It should be possible to exclude binary merges as they can be identified in emerge.log which is read by genlop to generate the output. Also I don't think there is an option in portage to not log binary merges. [1] https://bugs.gentoo.org/120899 -- Best Daniel
