Description Itay Perl 2008-02-06 14:42:43 UTC
When emerge --sync fails with the error message:

>>>
>>> SERVER OUT OF DATE: ...
>>> 
>>> In order to force sync, remove ...
>>>

it returns true, so commands such as 'emerge --sync && emerge -avu world' do not work as expected.

Reproducible: Always

This is fixed in 2.1.4.2.
