It wasn't cron. I did the emerge prior to heading off to bed. Perhaps a good thing would be when the emerge -uDpv world output can be formatted to include einfo messages, or rather include "ecriticalinfo" outputs. (Just like IIRC updating portage will make that happen.) Now, that would be a feature worth having. > > I also wish that emerges would stop whenever a message like this is > printed to the screen, but people have been cursing/moaning and getting > caught with dead systems by this bug for literally years - check out the > bugs for 2002 (einfo has some of them) for instance.
