Well, esync might be what you want-- it's part of gentoolkit, and while it won't do any emerges for you, it will display (or mail you, which is how I do it) the list of updated packages for the day, with a note as to whether the package is an upgrade for your system, new to your system, or the like. Here's an example of the daily mail I get when I run esync as a cron job and mail myself the output:* Importing old portage tree * Doing '/usr/bin/emerge sync' now * Doing 'eupdatedb' now * esearch-index generated in 4 minute(s) and 23 second(s) * indexed 10357 ebuilds * size of esearch-index: 1618 kB * Importing new portage tree * Preparing databases * Searching for changes [ N] dev-ruby/activesupport (1.1.1-r1): Utility Classes and Extension to the Standard Library [MN] net-libs/aqbanking (1.6.0_beta): Generic Online Banking Interface [MN] media-sound/ardour (0.99): multi-track hard disk recording software [ N] mail-filter/clamsmtp (1.5): ClamSMTP is an SMTP filter that allows you to check for viruses using the ClamAV anti-virus software. [ N] dev-util/cmake (2.0.6-r1): Cross platform Make [ N] net-libs/cvm (0.32-r1): Credential Validation Modules by Bruce Guenter [ N] dev-java/dom4j (1.6.1): Easy to use, open source library for working with XML, XPath and XSLT on the Java platform using the Java Collections Framework and with full support for DOM, SAX and JAXP. [ N] net-mail/fetchyahoo (2.9.0): Perl script that downloads mail from a Yahoo! webmail account to a local mail spool, an mbox file, or to procmail. [ N] net-libs/libmonetra (4.2.2): library for connecting to a MCVE Credit Card Processing Daemon via SSL, TCP/IP, and drop-files. [ N] net-analyzer/libnasl (2.2.5): A remote security scanner for Linux (libnasl) [ U] www-client/mozilla-firefox (1.0.7-r1): Firefox Web Browser [ N] net-analyzer/nagios-core (1.2-r3): Nagios Core - Check daemon, CGIs, docs [ N] net-dns/ndu (0.4-r2): DNS serial number incrementer and reverse zone builder [ N] net-analyzer/nessus (2.2.5): A remote security scanner for Linux [ N] net-analyzer/nessus-core (2.2.5): A remote security scanner for Linux (nessus-core) [ N] net-analyzer/nessus-libraries (2.2.5): A remote security scanner for Linux (nessus-libraries) [ N] net-analyzer/nessus-plugins (2.2.5): A remote security scanner for Linux (nessus-plugins) [ N] mail-client/nmh (1.1-r1): New MH mail reader [MN] x11-misc/openclipart (0.17-r1): Open Clip Art Library (openclipart.org) [MN] app-office/qbankmanager (0.9.29): Onlinebanking frontend for aqbanking [MN] x11-misc/service-discovery-applet (0.1): Service Discovery Applet [MN] sys-block/unieject (5): Multiplatform command to eject and load CD-Rom drives [MN] media-libs/urt (3.1b): the Utah Raster Toolkit is a library for dealing with raster images [MN] sys-cluster/vzctl (2.7.0.21): OpenVZ VPS control utility [ N] x11-plugins/wmail (2.0-r2): Window Maker dock application showing incoming mail [ N] x11-plugins/wmlpq (0.2.1-r1): Windowmaker dockapp which monitors up to 5 printqueues [ N] x11-plugins/wmmenu (1.2-r1): WindowMaker DockApp: Provides a popup menu of icons like in AfterStep, as a dockable application. [ N] x11-plugins/wmnetload (1.3-r2): Network interface monitor dockapp The only upgrade (this is from the 27th), is firefox, but I might take a look at wmail. Nothing else interesting to me on this particular list. I suppose if you really felt that you wanted to have an emerge of the new packages done automatically, you could always create a script to run esync and mail you the output, then run emerge -uD world after esync completed successfully (doesn't seem much point in using --newuse if you're not going to be there to look at the output), but I prefer to do my emerges manually.
