Description J.O. Aho 2007-03-04 11:05:21 UTC 
If you don't pipe all output from emerge to a file, you will miss a lot of information when you do large updates. If all einfo are stored in a buffer until emerge finished and then display it, you get all the information visible and you will easily find all important infromation.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -u world

Actual Results:  
You will miss all the information echoed from the ebuild, as you won't have an unlimited text/scroll buffer.

Expected Results:  
The information is shown after all ebuilds has been finished or saved to a default log file, eg /tmp/emerge-200703041206.einfo

See the ELOG stuff in /etc/make.conf.example.
