I think that would be really useful if "emerge --info $pkg" would also show repository information, allowing to easily check if the package was installed from official overlay or not Thanks Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 237799 [details, diff] emerge --info: Print repo names for packages not from 'gentoo' Example: app-shells/bash: 4.0_p37 dev-java/java-config: 2.1.11 dev-lang/python: 2.5.4-r4, 2.6.5-r99::sage-on-gentoo sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.13 sys-apps/sandbox: 2.2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.65 sys-devel/automake: 1.11.1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.20.1-r1 sys-devel/gcc: 4.3.4, 4.4.4-r1, 4.5.0 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6b virtual/os-headers: 2.6.30-r1 Could be easily turned into: app-shells/bash: 4.0_p37::gentoo dev-java/java-config: 2.1.11::gentoo dev-lang/python: 2.5.4-r4::gentoo, 2.6.5-r99::sage-on-gentoo sys-apps/baselayout: 1.12.13::gentoo sys-apps/sandbox: 2.2::gentoo sys-devel/autoconf: 2.65::gentoo sys-devel/automake: 1.11.1::gentoo sys-devel/binutils: 2.20.1-r1::gentoo sys-devel/gcc: 4.3.4::gentoo, 4.4.4-r1::gentoo, 4.5.0::gentoo sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.1::gentoo sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6b::gentoo virtual/os-headers: 2.6.30-r1::gentoo
Thanks, this is in git now: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/portage.git;a=commit;h=3a58eab382f5b31378030ea547ce0811e4b7d6a0
Thanks Sebastian and Zac for the fast fix :-)
This is fixed in portage-2.1.9.
