Description adam morley 2002-10-05 18:11:26 UTC

things like the Makefile are missing.  (this is sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r9)

Looking into it...

hrm... seems to merge fine here... can you log the merge process?

Comment 3 adam morley 2002-10-05 20:34:02 UTC

do i just:

emerge gentoo-sources > /var/tmp/logfile 2>&1 ?

or is there another way?  i didn't see it under the man page, at least when i
searched for log.

fwiw --- vanilla-sources does it too.  i have verified that the make file goes
into /var/tmp/portage/linux-sources-2.4.19-r1/work/

or at least thats what i remember, it was a little while ago.

merf... yes that is a decent way of logging it... but actually can you just 
tell me what 
grep 9/Makefile /var/db/pkg/sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r9/CONTENTS
returns?

Comment 5 adam morley 2002-10-05 20:52:26 UTC

hold on, its re-emerging, ive got it logging and will let you know what that
says in a second.

Comment 6 adam morley 2002-10-05 20:57:10 UTC

grep thing:

obj /usr/src/linux-2.4.19-gentoo-r9/Makefile 
wtf?  now its there.  this is weird.  no emerge sync this time either.  odd.

um, i guess never mind.
