Description Steffen 2005-11-18 00:48:38 UTC

It woul'd be a good thing to do a "glsa-sync" so it syncs only the glsa, not 
the complete Portage-Tree.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.

Pointless. If you really want to do this, it's as simple as:
rsync rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage/metadata/glsa/
/usr/portage/metadata/glsa/
(add or remove some options as you wish)
I'm not going to support this as it will create stupid bugs if the tree isn't in
sync with the GLSAs.
