Could, yes. Few more pressing things re: emerge-delta-webrsync, namely (order of what I'm hacking on now) A) bzip2 v1.03 is stabled now. MD5 compressor issue _will_ bite emerge-delta-webrsync in the ass _soon_ . Should have a version bump that handles this tomorrow or friday at the latest. B) Permenant solution needed for when snapshots upstream aren't generated, as occured 04/29. This probably will have to be serverside- easiest route, otherwise have to implement version jumping logic in bash, which is ugly C) cleansing of old snapshots. Current 'handling' of it (read: not doing a damn thing) is ugly. :) So... re: your request, emerge-webrsync default behaviour actually is to sync, regardless if an update was pulled or not. I'd rather not deviate from the default behaviour of emerge-webrsync, but tacking in support for a command opt (say -u for 'update only'?) can be slipped out at some point. Thoughts? ~brian -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
