I wrote the script that generates the new files. It reads categories from $REPO_DIR/profiles/catogories Then per category it runs down each package in os.listdir() order. The use flags are output on a first-come-first-serve basis. The script could possibly sort entries (sort categories; sort listdir output, keep per-package use flags in memory and sort them). File a bug to me if you want this. -Alec > > For example (they are all in reverse order now): > app-editors/emacs < app-editors/emacs-cvs > dev-db/postgresql < dev-db/postgresql-base > dev-java/ant < dev-java/ant-tasks > x11-libs/qt < x11-libs/qt-core > > I think something like "sort -t -k1,1" should do the job. > > Ulrich > >
