This is not the same as the ELOG settings, > it logs the entire output from the ebuild. This sound workable. If I don't want something logged, just comment out the PORT_LGDIR in make.conf, or is there a way on the Command line to toggle this on and off, without manually editing the file? I assume there is a unique log file for each separate ebuild. Where do I read up on PORTDIR (documentation) referred to in man make.conf ? James
