[gentoo-user] What mixes up line order of world file?

2005-05-16 Thread Mark Knecht
Hi, I've put my /var/lib/portage/world file in alphabetical order a few times but it keeps getting put back into non-alphabetical order. What's doing this and why? Thanks, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Yeah, I find this a little bit of an annoyance too ;-) I find myself doing cat /var/lib/portage/world | sort very often just to see the contents of the file. But then again it is just a very minor thing. Regards, -AR On 5/16/05, Mark Knecht [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On 5/16/05, Ciaran
