I tink there is the PORTAGE_COMPRESS variable. Set PORTAGE_COMPRESS="" in make.conf and portage will not compress documentation. There is also PORTAGE_COMPRESS_EXCLUDE_SUFFIXES which you can extend to your needs.

Thanks for mentioning this. Anyways, re-emerging libxcb fixes the issue for me. Maybe it is some bug in old portage version (which I used when I emerged libxcb), as I recently upgraded to 2.2_rc12 to have KDE 4.1.2.

You don't need bzgrep or what ever....just bzcat /ab/def/sd/blah.bz2 | grep yay Or if you want to use the cases above, a "| grep yay" should be more than enough...plus you get the colors in the results. It does get a little annoying when you want to use grep for all files in the directory, but nothing a little for loop cannot fix: for i in /path/to/dir/*; do echo $i; bzcat $i | grep yay; done > > > -- > ... _._. ._ ._. . _._. ._. ___ .__ ._. . .__. ._ .. ._. > Felix Finch: scarecrow repairman & rocket surgeon / felix@crowfix.com > GPG = E987 4493 C860 246C 3B1E 6477 7838 76E9 182E 8151 ITAR license > #4933 > I've found a solution to Fermat's Last Theorem but I see I've run out of > room o > > [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/html, Size: 1718 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 17+ messages in thread

The disk space taken by uncompressed docs is hardly significant these days, and grep -r is too handy to have to live with shell programming just because part of the disk is compressed. -- ... _._. ._ ._. . _._. ._. ___ .__ ._. . .__. ._ .. ._.
