Hi all,

I was wondering if there is a way or a tool wich logs the hints emerge gives
you sometimes after merging a program.
The hints were usefull for me more than once but I dont want to watch emerge
all the time when I ' m merging several packages.

best regards

Check out ELOG in /etc/make.conf.examples.

Look at the settings for PORTAGE_ELOG in /etc/make.conf/example. They
control which messages are reported to you, and how.

The portage elog system has recently been added to the handbook:

May I mention another tool which is IMHO better then the ELOG-feature?

Check out enotice -> http://www.fmp.com/enotice/

I use the ELOG-feature as well but I get not the information like with 
enotice ... for sure it's my fault ;-)

ok thanks, I check that out later.
is it working together with elog now?
because there´s an hint in the handbook that it doesn´t work with portage
2.0.*
I´m using 2.1.1 so I think its fixed now.

thanks

Reordered for readability.

No there is a hint that if you used enotice with 2.0.* then you need to remove 
it entirely before the elog system in portage 2.1.* will work. The elog 
system is entirely incompatible with enotice. There was no elog system in 
2.0.* hence the existance of enotice. I'm not sure why anyone would want to 
use enotice with 2.1.1 which does have quite a flexible elog system...

PS: Please don't top post.
