Description Torsten Veller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-01-10 03:25:26 UTC
hb-working-portage:

"<path>Manifest</path> (which contains the
checksums and permissions of all the files in the directory"

<digest type> <digest> <file name> <file size>

"You can view this ChangeLog with <c>emerge</c> too. Use the
<c>--pretend --changelog</c> (<c>-pl</c> in short) options. As an
example we will view the ChangeLog entries for <c>gnumeric</c>:"

gnumeric must be installed and a new version must be available.

Reproducible: Always
