I wrote this cron script for eupdatedb. Might add it to the package and install
to /usr/share/doc/${PF}/eupdatedb.cron.

Hi,

I think it makes no sense to run eupdatedb hourly/daily/weekly/..
Instead you should run it after you've updated your portage tree
with "emerge sync".

Maybe you find the following script, I wrote useful:

It calls emerge sync and eupdatedb automatically.

Thanks Donnie, added it in 0.4.2-r1. Btw, that script looks very generic,
could be installed by baselayout as a template.

David,
Why not install esync in the same place, or install it by default in /usr/sbin
or something along with esearch?
