I have a cronjob that after syncing fetches new packages. The problem is that it often (not always) outputs a lot of download gibberish. I'm using the following: /usr/bin/emerge --update --deep --with-bdeps=y --reinstall changed-use --quiet --fetchonly world I have the following features set: FEATURES="severe strict parallel-fetch userfetch" This is an example of what I get: >>> Fetching (1 of 10) media-libs/tiff-3.9.1 --2009-09-19 08:01:01-- http://gentoo.osuosl.org/distfiles/tiff-3.9.1.tar.gz Resolving gentoo.osuosl.org... 64.50.236.52 Connecting to gentoo.osuosl.org|64.50.236.52|:80... connected.

Sometimes, I only get the fetching lines. My guess is that it has to do with either the parallel-fetch or userfetch feature. Reproducible: Always
I guess we can redirect the fetcher output to /var/log/emerge-fetch.log.
(In reply to comment #1) > I guess we can redirect the fetcher output to /var/log/emerge-fetch.log. That would be fine with me. Thanks!
