[gentoo-user] display repo in emerge list?

[Caveman Al Toraboran]

hi - any way to display which repository a package
is being installed/updated from when emerging
something?

e.g. when doing `emerge -aqvDuUNt @world`, i see a
tree of packages, but i don't know from which
repository are they coming.

this concerns me since i got 2 overlays added, and
it would be useful for me to verify that i'm not
accidently emerging the wrong package from a
layman repo that i had for something else.

(extra question to keep you isolated a lil longer:
some one laughed at my `-aqvDuUNt` but didn't tell
me why.  is there anything stupid about it?)

rgrds, cm.

It shows the repository for me when I use my command. I assume you
would get the same if you removed -q (quiet) from your command, which
might override or interfere with your -v (verbose).

Another thing people might react to, are your use of both -U and -N,
which are two different approaches to updating packages with changes
in their USE state.

thx sir.  i removed:
    `-q`
and added:
    `--quiet-build y`
instead.

very excellente.
