A complete trivial nit, I know, but when booting my MythTV server, when /etc/init.dmysqld is being started, there is an extra space in the message where it says '[OK]'.

Actual Results: As above Expected Results: All '[OK]' outputs should line up on the right hand side of the screen. dragonfly ~ # emerge info Portage 2.0.51.22-r3 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-3.3.6, glibc-2.3.5-r2, 2.6.13-gentoo-r3 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.13-gentoo-r3 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.12.0_pre8 dev-lang/python: 2.3.5-r2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r10 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.18-r1 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://gentoo.ccccom.com http://gentoo.osuosl.org/ http://gentoo.seren.com/gentoo ftp://gentoo.mirrors.tds.net/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/home/portage_temp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/root/EBUILDS" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X alsa apache2 audiofile avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bonobo caps cdr crypt cups curl dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode esd fam firebird flac fluidsynth foomaticdb fortran gd gdbm gif gimp gimpprint gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml i8x0 imagemagick imlib ipv6 jack jack-tmpfs java jpeg kde ladcca ladspa libg++ libwww lirc mad mikmod mjpeg mmx motif mp3 mpeg mysql mythtv ncurses nls nptl nptlonly ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png ppds python qt quicktime readline samba sdl sndfile spell sse sse2 ssl svga tcltk tcpd threads tiff transcode truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts usb userlocales v4l v4l2 vorbis xine xml xml2 xmms xscreensaver xv xvid zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS dragonfly ~ # dragonfly ~ # emerge -pv mysql These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!
