I think you may be use this old script as i get used several years ago: website: http://www.panhorst.com/glcu/ ebuild: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D101827 Hopping this script could help you... It manage daily update (sync,build) and report via cron/mail. So you've just to install pre-built package that have been prepared on a daily frequency when you decide it's ok to do it without lost time. A revdep-rebuild and commit of new configuration file using a configured dispatch-conf later, your machine is update.
