Description postmodern 2005-07-28 15:10:53 UTC 
I think it would be helpful in auditing and working with live CVS ebuilds to
have portage record the date and time when a ebuild is installed. This way an
administrator could pin-point later when a certain app was upgraded or if a CVS
ebuild is out of date compared to a CIA-CVS listing.

Reproducible: Always
