Sorry people, but we (Halcy0n and I) really don't have the time nor the will
to maintain this package (dev-cpp/libherdstat) anymore without an upstream.

glimpse can be used to search stuff in all metadata.xml files.

All you have to do is:
  mkdir  metasearch
  echo '*' > metasearch/.glimpse_exclude
  echo metadata.xml > metasearch/.glimpse_include
  glimpseindex -i -B -H metasearch <portage-dir>
  glimpse -H metasearch <regex>

The tree's small enough that grep -r gives enough performance.

Even better

grep */*/metadata.xml

the tree is not big enough that it exceeds the maximum arguments from bash.

According to my local copy, we have 12876 metadata.xml files.
Something tells me that your command line will exceed the maximum 
command line length supported by any shell ;)

Although it'll be a bit slower than a direct grep: for m in `find
/usr/portage -name metadata.xml `; do grep -Rn foo $m;done

Uh no you want xargs in that case.

That would be horribly slow by comparison. :)

I actually checked before saying that :) Both zsh and bash on my system
can get that command line going just fine.

I was sure of that already because I use very often egrep $something
*/*/*.ebuild to scan the tree for particular stuff.

I remember that one time I had to split a command like dohtml 
"${S}"/something/*.{png,html} because the line was too long. At that 
time, bash had a limit of 32K. Now is what ... 1M?

from execve(2):

Limits on size of arguments and environment

  Most Unix implementations impose some limit on the total size of the 
command-line argument (argv) and environment (envp) strings that may be 
passed to a new program. POSIX.1 allows an implementation to advertise 
this limit using the ARG_MAX constant (either defined in <limits.h> or 
available at run time using the call sysconf(_SC_ARG_MAX)).

  On Linux prior to kernel 2.6.23, the memory used to store the 
environment and argument strings was limited to 32 pages (defined by the 
kernel constant MAX_ARG_PAGES). On architectures with a 4-kB page size, 
this yields a maximum size of 128 kB.

  On kernel 2.6.23 and later, most architectures support a size limit 
derived from the soft RLIMIT_STACK resource limit (see getrlimit(2)). 
For these architectures, the total size is limited to 1/4 of the allowed 
stack size, the limit per string is 32 pages (the kernel constant 
MAX_ARG_STRLEN), and the maximum number of strings is 0x7FFFFFFF. (This 
change allows programs to have a much larger argument and/or environment 
list. Imposing the 1/4-limit ensures that the new program always has 
some stack space.) Architectures with no memory management unit are 
excepted: they maintain the limit that was in effect before kernel 2.6.23.

Cheers,

I usually do something like this:

  grep -r --include='metadata.xml' -e TOKEN

It also works nicely for `--include='*.ebuild'`.

Thanks,

I used to do that too, but it's quite slower than the */*/$blah, because
it has to visit all the directories on the grep.

Give it a try, took me quite a while to get used to it but it works
nicely.
