I'm not sure if shallow causes the deletion or not, since shallow doesn't work, here, due to a NAPT based router filtering the ICMP or whatever that netselect uses, so shallow always fails and never returns anything to be written. I DID, however, try it, and it doesn't cause the deletion here. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: mirrorselect -oD Actual Results: /etc/make.conf is DELETED! Expected Results: -o is supposed to be output only. It shouldn't /touch/ make.conf. emerge.info to be attached. 1i5t5.duncan@cox.net 2005-07-20 02:05:25 0000 Created an attachment (id=63866) emerge info output tercel@gentoo.org 2005-07-20 13:02:37 0000 Fixed in my local version, will be in a bugfix release within a few hours. Good catch. By the way, unless there is a second bug at play here, it should have moved your make.conf to make.conf.backup. The real problem was that forgetting to create the new make.conf afterwards. You should, therefore, be able to retrieve all your old settings from /etc/make.conf.backup. If the backup was not made, please file a bug on that as well. Thanks. 1i5t5.duncan@cox.net 2005-07-21 00:50:59 0000 (In reply to comment #2) > [U]nless there is a second bug at play here, it should have moved your > make.conf to make.conf.backup. It was, and I had already caught that, only I thought it was one of my backup versions. =8^) Anyway, all my make.conf is, is a bunch of "source" lines, including other files, which I've splitup in a more manageable way. (/etc/portage/make.conf/fs, cflags, features, and similar files.) I really LIKE that feature, having put it to use almost immediately upon seeing it mentioned in -dev! =8^) So, nothing serious here, at least once I figured out the reason portage suddenly wanted to downgrade everything back to stable wasn't due to the freshly merged version of portage, but to my screwing with mirrorselect. I do keep backups, tho mine was a bit older than your automated one, and rewriting it from scratch wouldn't have been an issue anyway. I was more concerned about others running into the issue that weren't as well equipped to handle it. So... glad it's fixed, now. I'm having some strange net connectivity issues ATM and am not going to attempt a sync and source d/l until that's fixed, but will set full CLOSED status once I get the new version merged and verify (unless I forget =8^(. Thanks! 1i5t5.duncan@cox.net 2005-07-25 08:06:37 0000 mirrorselect-1.1.4 verified fixed.
