I prefer to see the build output, so --quiet-build=n is in my EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS. This setting works generally well, but on an update if portage itself is updated the post-resume stage when all the other updates are performed still runs in quiet-build mode. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: For example I'll downgrade grep and portage 1.Add --quiet-build=n to EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS 1. emerge -1 =portage-2.2.0_alpha74 =grep-2.9 2. emerge -u portage grep Actual Results: On both merges portage is built with verbose build, restarted to the new version, but grep is then built in quiet-build mode. Expected Results: All packages should be built in verbose-build mode.

The bug is really only in 2.1.10.34 and 2.2.0_alpha74, and you'll experience it when upgrading or downgrading to or from either of versions. It's fixed in 2.1.10.35 and 2.2.0_alpha75 by this commit: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/portage.git;a=commit;h=957b1dcdde637338cdcef625b9c820bbfe50ae5f
(In reply to comment #1) > The bug is really only in 2.1.10.34 and 2.2.0_alpha74, and you'll experience it > when upgrading or downgrading to or from either of versions. Actually, you will experience it with all older versions as well. It's a tricky interaction related to the change in defaults.
In order to prevent issues like this from happening in future, I've fixed the update process so that it will no longer call emerge --resume: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/portage.git;a=commit;h=d3f704a425a50b5cfa997a25866929b30f1b7d0f Of course, this won't solve upgrades from older versions of portage, since we can't stop them from calling emerge --resume after they update themselves.
