They're relevant to portage stable; down the line it'll likely be=20 mtime based. Right now that 4 digit number is an internal incrementing counter=20 that's tagged into the log file name. > It is a good idea to have 2 files for each package.

Name the former > package-version.log and the latter package-version.msg Doesn't work that way, and what you're after (restating your=20 'installer' as enotice/ewarn/einfo) is elog, something that'll be in=20 the next major version. You're seeing two logs due to the fact you have FEATURES=3D"buildpkg"=20 on; effectively, portage build's the binpkg (log 1), then merges it=20 (log 2). This is inneficient though, since it builds up one $IMAGE=20 dir, binpkg's it, then dumps it to another dir and installs from that. That's an old annoyance that should die a miserable death soon enough. ~harring --1ccMZA6j1vT5UqiK Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDJXwpvdBxRoA3VU0RAqD2AKDs/HhHMmyZ4rAVBHie7uacIQHQTACffTRJ SGZTlvUXAMFXLRuVM/Nij/U= =XEKL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --1ccMZA6j1vT5UqiK-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
