i noticed that repoman will regenerate empty digest files (possibly touch'ing them) which will force a manifest regeneration.

i wanted to commit changes to the following ebuilds:

app-admin/rmake
app-admin/denyhosts
app-admin/whowatch
app-admin/gentoo-rsync-mirror
app-admin/tenshi
app-admin/flexlm
app-admin/conary
app-admin/conary-policy
app-admin/phpsyslogng

the final repoman commit also contained changes to the digest files (and the following Manifest generation) to the following ebuilds:

app-admin/php-toolkit
app-admin/zprod-manager
app-admin/eselect-gnat

upon inspection these ebuild appear to have digest file with zero size.
