Description Kurt Hindenburg 2004-03-13 07:30:32 UTC
Often at the end of an emerge, you'll see the "Regenerating info files.. There were # errors".  It would be nice to see what errors where there without having to emerge the previous package with --verbose.
This script does that; it is just the code taken from portage/bin/emerge.

regeninfo.py --help

The errors are now shown even without --verbose.

 * Regenerating GNU info directory index...
 * Processed 250 info files: 2 errors; run with emerge --verbose to view errors.
