Description Narada Sage 2003-05-20 09:07:33 UTC 
From 2.0.48_pre6 onwards piping or redirection of output produces strange
characters or error messages even when the spinner is disabled.

$ emerge '.*' -s | less        (after pressing 'q' gives: )

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1747, in ?
    searchinstance.output()
  File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 447, in output
    print "     ", darkgreen("Size of downloaded files:"),mysum[0]
IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe

$ emerge lsof | tee /tmp/emerge.log

I'm not sure if this is a problem but it seems only to have occurred with pre6.

$ emerge info

  Portage 2.0.48_pre6 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.3, glibc-2.3.2-r1)

Also, emerge info now has two spaces on the first line of information as can be
seen above.  This is a trivial one but it would be nice not to have the spaces.

Reason - No longer a problem with new portage (.49).
