Description Bertrand Jacquin 2015-02-01 14:48:13 UTC

It would be really nice to have the equivalent of equery list in portage-utils to do something like that:

$ equery --quiet list '>=sys-devel/gcc-4.8.2:4.8'                                                                     
sys-devel/gcc-4.8.3

equery is really slow and using the libq logic would lead to real benefits in a such case.

Reproducible: Always

how does `qlist -Iv` not satisfy this ?

$ qlist -eIv dev-lang/python
dev-lang/python-2.7.9-r2
dev-lang/python-3.2.5-r6
dev-lang/python-3.3.5-r1
dev-lang/python-3.4.2

$ qlist -eIv '>dev-lang/python-3.0'
dev-lang/python-3.2.5-r6
dev-lang/python-3.3.5-r1
dev-lang/python-3.4.2

$ qlist -eIv '>dev-lang/python-3.4'
dev-lang/python-3.4.2

I'm glad to see that it works like a charm for slot as well:

$ qlist -eIv 'dev-lang/python:3.3'
dev-lang/python-3.3.5-r1

Closing the bug as there is no enhancement to do. Sorry for the noise. Thanks !

But I may, that would be nice to get return code different than zero when current system does not match the criteria. What do you think ?

can't think of a reason to not do it:
