This patch is for /usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py and adds some code so it will append to /var/log/ebuild.log (easily changable) for most actions. The log will look similar to something like this: 20020306.150925: Ebuild: clean on /usr/portage/app-misc/gentoo/gentoo-0.11.18.ebuild 20020306.150925: Ebuild: merge on /usr/portage/app-misc/gentoo/gentoo-0.11.18.ebuild 20020306.152115: Ebuild: unmerge on /var/db/pkg/app-misc/rox-1.1.8-r2/rox-1.1.8-r2.ebuild 20020306.152116: Ebuild: prerm on //var/db/pkg/app-misc/rox-1.1.8-r2/rox-1.1.8-r2.ebuild 20020306.152116: Ebuild: postrm on //var/db/pkg/app-misc/rox-1.1.8-r2/rox-1.1.8-r2.ebuild A handy use for this is when you want to get the system back to a previous state (after you find out some package that installed 50 libraries sucks ;)), you can see what dependencys were installed when you installed a package.

pretty neat :)

Might as well convert this bug to a general request for emerge to support logging...
