so what exactly would be needed for this from the portage side ? high-level api for using emerge (beyond just calling it from a shell). all emerge operations should be available. eg being able to do the equiv of 'emerge -upv world' and get a data structure containing the information to pass back to a network client running on the machine (which can pass it back to the admin). |
