Bug 227289 – ewarns, elogs aren't printed at the end of update

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Imre Péntek 2008-06-15 19:00:32 UTC]

now I issued my weekly-regular 
emerge --update --deep --newuse --verbose world

I just accidentally saw the messages printed by freetype ebuild:
pkg_postinst() {
        echo
        ewarn "After upgrading to freetype-2.3.5, it is necessary to rebuild"
        ewarn "libXfont to avoid build errors in some packages."
        echo
        elog "The utilities and demos previously bundled with freetype are now"
        elog "optional.  Enable the utils USE flag if you would like them"
        elog "to be installed."
        echo
}

it wasn't repeated at the end of the emerge (actually, there were no messages printed at the end, maybe I missed some of them).


Reproducible: Always

What's the output of `grep ELOG /etc/make.conf`?

[Comment 2 Imre Péntek 2008-06-16 11:26:00 UTC]

PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM="save" 
PORTAGE_ELOG_CLASSES="warn info qa"

[Comment 3 Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) 2008-06-16 13:26:25 UTC]

When having PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM defined, you have overridden the default. Have a look at /etc/make.conf.example how to configure it.
