Description Bash 2004-05-22 19:27:27 UTC
Hello,
I wanna to suggest "auto rsync" features for `emerge'. Let's try to explain it:
So, at example i wanna to emerge xmms, i type `emerge xmms', then emerge rsync from server new xmms ebuild and ebuilds for depending packages (for example new gtk ebuild and new esound if exist). Also it need to rsync new eclasses, for this reason maybe represent eclass as ebuild with versions. At this way ebuild can depend on ecasses with defined version and emerge can understand update or not eclass.

This features can decrease overhead for rsyncd servers with portage-tree and users can not to keep full portage-tree.

Reproducible: Always
