Good evening, please consider merging this patchset. It includes: - brief documentation of the install-qa-check.d mechanism in portage.5 - implementation of the noisy-qa option for FEATURES - implementation of the __noisy_qa() function - use of the __noisy_qa() function to make existing default qa-checks more verbose (for developer diagnostics)
In particular, the noisy-qa FEATURE is intended to alert developers of unfulfilled preconditions to run specific checks (in particular 10ignored-flags proved repeatedly troublesome) and to show which checks (from the overriding hierarchy) are actually run. The attached patch can go directly into /etc/portage/patches/sys-apps/portage/ and works with portage 2.3.0_rc1. Alternatively the repo is located at https://gitlab.com/tomboy64/portage/compare/master...increase-qacheck-verbosity If required I can provide the commits one patch per commit. Thank you for your time. With kind regards, tomboy64
