The time handling in package lists is buggy. When you click on a single weekday in the online package database you get a list which starts at midnight but ends at 21 o'clock (9pm). So the day lists do not contain all packages since the next day starts at midnight again. It would also be nice to see the time zone... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
I cannot confirm this. If you look at http://packages.gentoo.org/daily/2005/10/02/ the first entry starts at 00:50 while the last entry is at 20:36 (the entries are listed reverse-chronologically). Unless you talking about the current day. The listing for the current day (today) will always only list the 20 most recent entries (equivalent to just going to http://packages.gentoo.org/ This is because the day is not over yet, so showing all the packages for that day will always be incomplete. This is not a bug but a "feature" and the behavior is not likely to change in the 1.x codebase.
For example, linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1-r2 is updated at Fri Dec 9 21:25:28 2005 ( http://packages.gentoo.org/ebuilds/?linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1-r2 ), but http://packages.gentoo.org/daily/2005/12/09/ does not contain linuxtv-dvb. Today is Dec 10, not Dec 9. More examples: http://packages.gentoo.org/ebuilds/?mod_backhand-1.2.2 http://packages.gentoo.org/daily/2005/10/29/ http://packages.gentoo.org/ebuilds/?apache-2.0.55 http://packages.gentoo.org/daily/2005/10/22/ However, http://packages.gentoo.org/daily/2005/12/08/ contains an entry at Thu Dec 8 23:05:56 2005 (dansguardian 2.8.0.6-r1). I can't detect the condition of the bug.
