Disclaimer: this bug has been filed in a semi-automated manner. When emerging the package app-portage/portage-utils-0.10, the following elog messages are displayed: * /etc/portage/postsync.d/q-reinitialize has been installed for convenience * If you wish for it to be automatically run at the end of every --sync: * # chmod +x /etc/portage/postsync.d/q-reinitialize * Normally this should only take a few seconds to run but file systems * such as ext3 can take a lot longer. To disable, simply do: * # chmod -x /etc/portage/postsync.d/q-reinitialize Such messages should only be displayed when the package is a new install. These situations can be checked in the ebuild as follows: if ! has_version 'app-portage/portage-utils'; then See the tracker bug 440214 for more details.
should be all set now in the tree; thanks for the report! Commit message: Show init messages on first install only http://sources.gentoo.org/app-portage/portage-utils/portage-utils-0.21.ebuild?r1=1.3&r2=1.4
