[gentoo-user] emerge running forever

2006-06-11 Thread Meino Christian Cramer

Hi,

 I did an 
   emerge portage
 and everything runs fine.

 Than I did a
   emerge --searchdesc luks

 which runs forever (I killed that job after waiting for about half
 an hour...)

 What is going wrong here? Did I missing something while/after
 updateing portage ???

 Thanks a lot for any help in advance !

If you did an upgrade to portage 2.1 you had to run emerge --metadata before 
any further usage of emerge.

I just did another emerge sync.  It worked fine after that.

Yarrr, emerge --metadata get run as part of emerge --sync, but you
shouldn't be resyncing straight away, and this lets you recreate the
cache database straight away without having to wait...

I LOVE my new cable modem.  I get about 700KBs/sec here.  It don't take
long.  I started to do a emerge metadata but I didn't know what else may
have changed so I figured I would kill two birds with one stone.

True, but I nonetheless agree, that emerge --searchdesk shouldn't
take *that* long, should it?

If it should, wouldn't it be worthwhile to dump the --searchdesc
feature, as it's seemingly not functioning in a acceptable way?
