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 -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
