Description Adam Purkrt 2020-05-30 14:24:21 UTC
The final question when using "--buildpkgonly" is "Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No]".

I would expect it to be "Would you like to build these packages? [Yes/No]"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. "emerge -a --buildpkgonly <atom>"
2. emerge correctly says "These are the packages that would be built, in order:" and displays a list of packages
3. but then it asks "Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No]"
Actual Results:  
emerge does not merge the packages, so basically it works fine.


My only complain is that the message is confusing - asking about merge, when it is just going to build.
