It would be nice if Portage didn't output PORTAGE_ELOG_JABBERFROM (contains a password!), PORTAGE_ELOG_JABBERTO, PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILFROM, and PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI in emerge --info Perhaps PORTAGE_ELOG_* should be omitted-- is there any reason to include them?
Less special casing? :) It just dumps the config. Are you worried about the actual output or are you worried about users pasting the output into bugzilla? Arguably they are separate problems. If we didn't tell users to paste emerge --info into the bug then I doubt this would be a problem; if only we had a bug submitting tool :/ "submit emerge --info | grep -v 'PORTAGE_ELOG'" ? :) -Alec
The normal `emerge --info` doesn't contain any ELOG* variables. I assume you're referring to `emerge --verbose --info` which simply dumps the whole configuration environment, and I'm reluctant to add special filtering there, esp. for variables that aren't actually used by portage (only by 3rd party plugins).
Ah, I have --verbose as an automatic option. Can I disable that only for --info?
