Description Lucian Poston 2016-01-02 23:00:27 UTC
Add --autounmask-only parameter that will display autounmask messages, perform autounmasking (in accordance with the other --autounmask-* parameters), and exit with success (return value 0).

This will make it possible to differentiate cases where emerge exists due to compilation failure and where emerge autounmasks packages.

Reproducible: Always
