-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I think if you're using Gentoo, there is an assumption that "if it's new (and acceptably stable), I want it". I agree that a comprehensive list of fixed bugs and new features would be nice for each updated package, but I imagine that it would be unwelcome extra work for the port maintainers.
Especially handy would be if I were updating from version x to version y of a particular package and emerge would tell me the functional delta between those two versions. If there's a package I'm particularly interested in (or dubious about), I'll venture over to its homepage to check out the changelist when it gets updated, but I usually defer to the wisdom of the portage and package maintainers. - --myk [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > portage reminds me of updating packages frequently, > i have to decide what to update, and if it's worth downloading? > > is there a easy way to see "what's new" of those packages to be > updated? the ChangeLog within /usr/portage/xxx-xxx/ make no sense to me. > > thanks. > > regards > daniel.. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFC0pxMBOPsJyAQkeARAsvEAJ9RWQ9LBWOdXJpBsesgfJP2wOBtBgCbBU0m 7LtGA+VdldKj/sxxrjlMtzg= =NhMW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
