Subject: [gentoo-dev] Portage log suggestion

Hi,

I fought with a stage1 install during this weekend. Today in the morning
I succeeded.
I had to move a lot in /var/log/portage.

For the content of this directory I'd suggest the following:

Remove the 4 digit number from the log file names.

It is a good idea to have 2 files for each package. One with the output
of make and one with the messages for the installer. Name the former
package-version.log and the latter package-version.msg

This makes it easier to search for a single package in an alphabetical
ordered list from ``ls -l''.
If we need a chronological ordered list there is ``ls -ltr'' sufficient.

Just a thought
Frank
