Description fkater 2015-03-20 13:37:02 UTC 
The latest (and only) dev-utils/global in portage is version 6.3.1. Please
upgrade the package, 6.3.4 is current.

At least version 6.3.1 has the known bug that compacting GTAGS databases with
gtags --compact does not work anymore with GTAGSLIBPATH.

Confirmed by the developer (quite a long blog, sorry):
http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.global.bugs

There is a workaround to not compact the GTAGS databases, however, this
workaround is quite hard to find.



Reproducible: Always

Upstream is meanwhile 6.5.2, portage still 6.3.1 from 2014/8/11.

Please upgrade.

Ping.

Current version is 6.5.4, portage 6.3.1. No ebuild update since at least 1.5 years.
