What's up with this anyway? Is my Timezone wrong??
(In reply to comment #1) Same problem and it appends only when the user also in group portage isn't root. root reads /etc/localtime, but a user doesn't.

OK: Comment #0 is not a bug. genlop --help says: --date datestring1 [ --date datestring2] only shows results between datestring1 and datestring2. datestring2 dafaults to "now" if not explicitly set. (e.g. genlop --list --date 3 days ago) In other words, if datestring1 is 'today' you're asking it to list all packages emerged between "today" and "now". Since today == now, that should always be empty. As for comment #1 and comment #2: I haven't been able to reproduce this problem yet. If you are still seeing this problem please show me how your TIMEZONEs are set up by attaching the contents of /etc/conf.d/clock and showing me what version of sys-libs/timezone-data you have.
