Some notes on the logs produced by emerge: * In the past, the majority of logfiles produced by emerge have been empty. Today, after installing portage 47-r10, *all* logfiles produced by subsequent emerges have been empty! * Even before, the logfiles never contained the most important information, namely emerge's terminal messages preceeded by the color stars! I want to have everything shown at the terminal logged. * The filenames of the log files do not correspond to the format given in the comment in make.conf: They start with some four-digit number (not a date) followed by the package.
fixed in cvs Empty files were caused by fixing persistent variables. If it isn't part of the build it cannot be logged in the same manner. Try looking at /var/log/emerge.log Yes, the comment is wrong. The numbers match the counter values associated with the package being built. 2.0.47-r11 will match counters with logs.
