Subject: [gentoo-user] q-reinitialize script in portage-utils-0.10
Date: Wed, 6 Jun 2012 19:30:58 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <201206061930.59618.michaelkintzios@gmail.com> (raw)

Latest stable portage told me this:

 * Messages for package app-portage/portage-utils-0.10:

 * /etc/portage/postsync.d/q-reinitialize has been installed for convenience
 * If you wish for it to be automatically run at the end of every --sync:
 *    # chmod +x /etc/portage/postsync.d/q-reinitialize
 * Normally this should only take a few seconds to run but file systems
 * such as ext3 can take a lot longer.  To disable, simply do:
 *    # chmod -x /etc/portage/postsync.d/q-reinitialize

but it did not tell me *why* and I don't understand what "Reinitialize ebuild 
cache" mean.

In case this makes any odds, I am using eix.  Do I need the above script?

Mick
