I have a 10 year old Core2 as an emergency backup machine. Let's just say it's not as fast as modern machines. To speed up "emerge --sync". I put a bunch of unneeded stuff in an "rsync_excludes" file (attached). Now "emerge --sync" has started failing, because it obviously can't verify the missing directories/files. Here's the error message...
* Manifest timestamp: 2018-10-22 13:08:41 UTC * Valid OpenPGP signature found: * - primary key: DCD05B71EAB94199527F44ACDB6B8C1F96D8BF6D * - subkey: E1D6ABB63BFCFB4BA02FDF1CEC590EEAC9189250 * - timestamp: 2018-10-22 13:08:41 UTC * Verifying /usr/portage/.tmp-unverified-download-quarantine ...!!! Manifest verification failed: Manifest mismatch for app-dicts/Manifest.gz __exists__: expected: True, have: False app_dicts is the first entry in my "rsync_excludes", and I assume that all the other entries would be problematic too. How do I turn off this bleeping "helpful" verification feature? -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
