Description Alex Efros 2018-04-04 16:33:27 UTC
Current output of `emerge -uDNa world` is not enough to make decision about proposed update because it doesn't show possible repo change. When we install packages not from ::gentoo this happens because of some reason. Auto-replacing modified package from ::local or other overlay just because ::gentoo now has newer version of same package is not always acceptable. As changing package repo will happens very rarely adding it to output of `emerge` without -v won't affect most of users, but rest of users will thank you for this feature. :)

To be concrete, I propose to change this example output:
[ebuild   R    ] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-390.42 [390.42] USE="-gtk3*"
to this:
[ebuild   R    ] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-390.42::gentoo [390.42::local] USE="-gtk3*"
only in case repo of currently install and proposed packages differs.
