emerge-webrsync will download a snapshot even if it's previously been downloaded. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge-webrsync 2. emerge-webrsync Actual Results: emerge-rsync will download the same snapshot at step 2. Expected Results: It should reply with a message "No New Snapshot Available" or such and exit -1. This could be easy to fix by getting emerge-webrsync to add a file: /var/tmp/emerge-webrsync/.timestamp The contents of this file could be for example: "portage-20030217.tar.bz2" Then, before downloading, file="portage-${year}${month}${day}.tar.bz2" CURPORTAGE=`cat ${SYNCPATH}/.timestamp` if [[ ${CURPORTAGE} != ${file} ]]; then sync_local echo ${file} > ${SYNCPATH}/.timestamp fi Or something like that Maybe?

Created attachment 8539 [details] emerge-webrsync in python
hello, I just written a new emerge-webrsync in python which fix this bug and the one which appear since there is some print statement in /usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/portage.py when the module is loaded it is not really terminated but the basic fonctionnalities are there. I would like to know if you think it useful i finish it before loosing too much time /huz
Created attachment 8540 [details] Another webrsync script I've written one also. I've used it where I work quite a bit, but it should be examined by a pro.
We should have the md5 for the snapshots posted along side the snapshots; once they are (if they aren't already), pull the md5, and md5 the local file. That would be a better approach imo, added gives us a way to verify no corruption in fetching.
Modifed emerge-webrsync as my last comment described.
pre18 is out, w/ a version that should support this. Please reopen if it is funky; been testing it for osx and x86, but possible I missed something
