Bug 126558 – emerge-webrsync warning

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Portage Development

[Description Patrick Lauer 2006-03-17 10:03:35 UTC]

With the newest versions of portage a deprecation warning comes up,
"Deprecated use of action 'metadata', use '--metadata'"

The fix is to change line 76 from "emerge metadata" to "emerge --metadata"

Thanks, this is in r2924.

Small addition:
When using FEATURES="-metadata-transfer" I think emerge --metadata shouldn't run

Agreed.  Unfortunately, a simple "$(portageq envvar FEATURES)" won't be able to detect the -metadata-transfer, so something different is needed...

Err, nevermind.  Since emerge-webrsync is distributed with portage, we can rely on the absence of metadata-transfer from FEATURES to mean -metadata-transfer.  It's in svn r2965.
