after upgrading to cfg-update-1.8.2 meld does not get called as before. cfg-update -u ******************************************************************************* The alias for emerge, used for updating the index, is now deprecated... cfg-update now uses hooks instead of the alias for emerge... For Portage a new hook has been created in /etc/portage/bashrc You should remove the alias for emerge in /etc/profile followed by running this command: "unalias emerge" ******************************************************************************* ********************************************************************** Mergetool "/usr/bin/xxdiff" not found... The recommended merge tool for cfg-update is xxdiff, a nice GUI tool. Please install dev-util/xxdiff or change the MERGE_TOOL variable to your own favorite tool. See /etc/cfg-update.conf for more details! ********************************************************************** Switching to "sdiff" for now... Searching for updates... i don't use xxdiff, and i have MERGETOOL = /usr/bin/meld in my /etc/cfg-update.conf Reproducible: Always
The variable name was changed, you need to set MERGE_TOOL now, not MERGETOOL.
that's cool, but i was not able to get to the point where i see the new config file and notice the change.
Ah, yes, that would be annoying. I'm sorry about that. I'll try to update the ebuild later so that any MERGETOOL setting will be changed during the build.
Harold, don't bother changing the ebuild... I'll change the script so it still recognises the old variable names in the configfile. will post 1.8.2-r1 ASAP
uploaded the new 1.8.2-r1 tarball with fixes for #179026 and #179025
And fixed, thanks!
