Here is some feedback then. I liked it the way it was. When a build
fails, I do a one of install of that package and I like to see the
output. Why, because sometimes it gives me a hint as to why it failed
or something I can google for.
If it fails you get tail of build.log, so you see it anyway.
That doesn't always go back far enough tho. I have on my new rig seen
the failure be as far back as a couple hundred lines. There are a
number of times that I have had to use the Find function to even find
the original failure because it is so far back. I have even set Konsole
to have unlimited history. Unless it is going to tail -n 500 or more,
that may not go back far enough. This is the age of multiple cores and
enough ram to use tmpfs. I have both. 4 cores and 16Gbs of ram.
MAKEOPTS="-j10"
tmpfs on /var/tmp/portage type tmpfs (rw,noatime)
The MAKEOPTS is increasing. I'm looking for that sweet spot. ;-)
