During installation according to the Handbook command: mirrorselect -i -r -o >> /mnt/gentoo/etc/make.conf should add SYNC="..." to /mnt/gentoo/etc/make.conf but instead it adds it to /etc/make.conf Observed with 2005.1-r1
Can the releng people or the bug reporter specify what version of mirrorselect is in question here?
(In reply to comment #1) It was version 0.89 Sorry for delay, but I had to dig out CD...
This problem should not exist in current versions.
