Hey, is anything happening with this? I'd really just like to know what the status is, if it's supposed to work, planned to work in the future, etc. Agree on previous. Is anything happening here? And, of course, together with this, why is there no flag for emerge to merge all files listed in an arbitrary file, not only /var/cache/edb/world? Am I the only one wanting that to simplify various things? I prefer to see discrepancies, rather than have portage act upon them. emerge $(<file) or emerge $(</var/cache/edb/world) Well, I'm satisfied with that. Neat trick, thanks! I think this issue was dealt with a long time ago; any reason it hasn't been closed yet? *** Bug 48182 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Emerge specifically checks for and skips packages listed in world that aren't installed at the moment. This will probably change when "user sets" is implemented. This has been fixed since 2.1.3 or so. |
