Portage-2.0.47-r3 is out and it needs more testers, _especially_ those
that experienced bugs in 2.0.47-r2. All of those bugs should be fixed.
See the ChangeLog below for details on additions and fixes.

The PATH problems some people experienced were due to resetting
BASH_ENV to a proper value for userpriv. Anyone that (incorrectly)
sourced /etc/profile caused any running scripts to reload the root
(or user, if they were sudo or 'su' running portage) when they were
executed. This overwrote the changes portage/ebuild.sh made to the
path, and thus things weren't quite kosher.

ChangeLog for Portage-2.0.47-r3
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> bin/: added dispatch-conf
and db-fix.pl to the bins. Looking at dispatch-conf to replace etc-update
written by Jeremy Wohl (bug 14079). db-fix.pl is a rescue tool that Blizzy
wrote up to recreate/repair counter files in the DB -- shouldn't be needed
anymore as portage fixes the counter at every load of the counter, but we
will hang on to it just in case.

22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> portage.py: moved the
wheelgid references to portage_gid references. Wheel is being deprecated.
Added notice to baselayout message that group portage controls everything
now. Killed the BASH_ENV settings -- moved the reference to /etc/portage/
in case it's desired in some way -- This fixes AROUND ONE HUNDRED reports
on 2.0.47-r2. Try/catch invalid tbz2's -- should fix a couple bad tarball
bugs. Make the prelink call spawn'd without sandbox. buildpkg/userpriv
fix via actionmap (Jasmin Buchert; bug 16106).

22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> emerge: --upgradeonly
added from jrray's patch; added some slot handling. --deep got a short
flag 'D'. 'info' can be run by non-root. '--quiet' kills all but package
names on searches. Basic slot detection added to the pretend output so
that it doesn't always say downgrade. Ignore block list when fetching.
Can use RSYNC_EXCLUDEFROM to select a from for rsync to --exclude-from;
(Michael Sterrett; Bug 15882). 'emerge rsync' deletes the dbcachedir
before it begins updates. Catch	exceptions during rsync cache regen.

22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> ebuild.sh: General fixes
to the spelling of things. 'cd $PORT_TMPDIR' corrected to the actual vars
name. Stripping distcc from PATH if it is there before portage sets it.
Same with ccache. If we try to compile with out unpacking, complain. Make
sure to chown files to user portage. 

22 Feb 2003; Nicholas Jones <carpaski@gentoo.org> cnf/*: CFLAGS notes,
pentium4 breaks things. Added more descriptions for FEATURES. Added
RSYNC_EXCLUDEFROM description.
