OK; this is a great idea, so I've added it to emerge. A --fetchonly-enabled emerge will show up on rsync in 45 minutes (it's on CVS now). You'll need to merge or remerge Portage 1.5.4 for it to be installed. Great idea! Best Regards, -- Daniel Robbins Chief Architect/President http://www.gentoo.org Gentoo Technologies, Inc.
