[gentoo-user] new symbols in portage
Hi group, Since updating portage I notice the following whenever I run emerge: ... Portage tree and overlays: [0] /usr/portage [?] indicates that the source repository could not be determined ... But what does [?=0] mean which sometimes appears? Maxim __ Be smarter than spam. See how smart SpamGuard is at giving junk email the boot with the All-new Yahoo! Mail.

Just the fact that ebuild, used to build given package, no longer exists. Could be something you've hacked (or just changed a bit and redigested) in haste right in portage tree, removed by subsequent rsync, or advanced ebuild from an overlay you've long removed, that just got bumped in the main tree. -- Mike Kazantsev // fraggod.net signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Normally you will see something like [1=0] meaning the ebuild was installed from the overlay tagged as [1] at the end and will be updated with a more recent ebuild from the overlay tagged [0] at the end. [0] will always be the portage tree in practice. [?] means portage doesn't know which overlay the installed ebuild came from - usually because you deleted it from layman -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com

It means you are going from an ebuild of indeterminate source to one from the portage tree. -- Neil Bothwick A closed mouth gathers no foot. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
