No, it hasn't - I understand that. I understand rsync better than I want to, trust me.. :) $grep RSYNC /etc/portage/make.conf PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS="--compress --exclude-from=/etc/portage/rsync_excludes" This is the way documented on the Gentoo wiki, and broke today (with .21). Hence I was thinking that maybe this now needs to go into the repos.conf config or got broken some other way. Just figured I ask before filing an unnecessary bug. thanks -h
