I do see the difference in the terminal output." This time around, and it was a lot of emerge'ing, after a couple of dozen emerge'ing of various packages, while that '--color=n' option had, at start of using it, removed color from the terminal and from the logs... after a couple of dozen emerge'ing of various packages it stopped removing color, completely stopped, in the terminal and in the logs. This is a bug, and if this is how others have it too, than this needs to be reported to bugzilla. I would do it, but I'm a little unwell at this time, can't do it, don't know if I'll be able to do it later. Regards! -- Miroslav Rovis Zagreb, Croatia https://www.CroatiaFidelis.hr
