Due to incorrectly using a string comparison (ge) instead of a binary comparison (>=) to compare numbers the current() function returns an ETA of "any time now" when it should return the estimated time left in the emerge. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge a package 2. run "genlop -c" 3. When the number of digits in the number of seconds the emerge has been running is less than the number of digits in the number of seconds in the average emerge time, genlop returns "any time now" Actual Results: genlop -c printed "any time now" Expected Results: genlop should have printed the difference between the time the emerge has been running and the average emerge times of that package from emerge.log.

Either the homepage 'emerge --search genlop' points to ( http://pollycoke.org/genlop.html ) is wrong or the upstream is dead.
fixed in next release the homepage will hopefully be up soon
request for closing this bug as there are newer releases which are fixed in case of this bug
(In reply to comment #3) > request for closing this bug as there are newer releases which are fixed in > case of this bug > From original report: The fix is to change 'ge' to '>=' in line 601 of v. 0.30.3 to get the following: if (($e_end - $e_start) >= ($tm_secondi / $e_count)) { print colored("any time now.\n", $COLORS{'green'}); } So this would probably still affect stable versions?
released in genlop-0.30.5
