Currently Portage reports its progress in checking collisions forward every 1000th file like so:
* checking 4149 files for package collisions 1000 files checked ... 2000 files checked ... 3000 files checked ... 4000 files checked ... >>> Merging sys-apps/portage-2.3.8 to / Change it to countdown style so it is easier to anticipate what the next action will be: * checking 4149 files for package collisions 3149 files remaining ... 2149 files remaining ... 1149 files remaining ... 149 files remaining ... >>> Merging sys-apps/portage-2.3.8 to / --- pym/portage/dbapi/vartree.py | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/pym/portage/dbapi/vartree.py b/pym/portage/dbapi/vartree.py index 7c8f150bb..04a40b732 100644 --- a/pym/portage/dbapi/vartree.py +++ b/pym/portage/dbapi/vartree.py @@ -3420,13 +3420,14 @@ class dblink(object): dirs_ro = set() symlink_collisions = [] destroot = self.settings['ROOT'] + totfiles = len(file_list) + len(symlink_list) showMessage(_(" %s checking %d files for package collisions\n") % \ - (colorize("GOOD", "*"), len(file_list) + len(symlink_list))) + (colorize("GOOD", "*"), totfiles)) for i, (f, f_type) in enumerate(chain( ((f, "reg") for f in file_list), ((f, "sym") for f in symlink_list))): if i % 1000 == 0 and i != 0: - showMessage(_("%d files checked ...\n") % i) + showMessage(_("%d files remaining ...\n") % (totfiles - i)) dest_path = normalize_path( os.path.join(destroot, f.lstrip(os.path.sep))) -- 2.14.1
