Since the server is the local rsync mirror it must do it's emerge --sync first. After it has completed (note: not during the run), the client(s) can emerge --sync. > emerge -uDp world shows this file (among others) on the P4 system using > the old external update method: > [ebuild NS ] sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.12-r5 > > The new internal-AMD rsync/distfile server, issueing > 'emerge -s gentoo-sources' shows: > sys-kernel/gentoo-sources > Latest version available: 2.6.12-r4 > Latest version installed: 2.6.12-r4 > > Is this evidence that the nightly updates, are not working on the > internal server? No, it is merely an indication that at some point between the server's sync and the older sync that -r5 of gentoo sources was released. My systems, as of last night around midnight thought only -r4 was available. Just now I ran emerge --sync on the server and it now sees that -r5 is available. It's strictly a timing issue. > Is there a simple test to determine if the updates are working > on the rsync and distfiles? Sure. New packages are released every day. I can't remember a single day in the last month where emerge -uDp reported no packages to update. So if you run a few days and constantly see emerge -uDp reporting no packages, there's probably a sync problem. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
