Hopefully it's nt to trivial, but I often observed this: n22 / # diff /var/lib/portage/world* 10d9 < dev-libs/openssl 19d17 < dev-util/ccache 23d20 < net-fs/nfs-utils 24a22 > net-fs/nfs-utils 28,29c26,27 < mail-mta/courier < net-analyzer/tcpdump \ No newline at end of file --- > net-analyzer/tcpdump > mail-mta/courier \ No newline at end of file Is it wanted to have no newline at the end of the world file ?

It would also be nicer if the file was sorted. At the moment, the code that handles world is spread through various parts of emerge and emaint. Eventually, we should encapsulate all of the world file handling in a single place. Until then, we have to update code in several places, and it's annoying.
(In reply to comment #2) > It would also be nicer if the file was sorted. Right, strong ACK form me.
