While I don't understand everything about gentoo, let me make a statement and ask a question I hope isn't too, ah, caustic. Shouldn't a new file, say 0.12.5-r2, be created and used? Isn't that why there are different files for different releases? Why have a 0.12.5-r1 at all, then? I personally much prefer that once an ebuild is committed, it not change. If changes need to be made, shouldn't a new ebuild file be made? Just my opinion, but I feel it has merit. If changes are made to an ebuild file, and I run rsync, sure, I get the updated ebuild. However, does portage understand that it's a "new" ebuild? -- Jon Nelson jnelson@jamponi.net C and Python Programmer Motorcycle Enthusiast
