Greetings,
after a recent KDE upgrade among other new packages "emerge" also in-
stalled "dev-qt/qtwebengine" as a new dependency. Since on my five year
old laptop this package requires about 6 hours 20 minutes to build, I
decided to slightly redesign my package managing script and to use bina-
ry packages for long bilding dependencies I build with default USE flags
anyway.
It works, but is there a way (short of using "|grep -v ...") to prevent
"emerge" from spitting plenty of noisy but rather irrelevant progress
messages to standard output (which it also logs to "/var/log/emerge-
fetch.log")? Since I want to save the "emerge" logs and since "man e-
merge" is less than helpful with respect to option "--quiet" ("Results
may vary, but the general outcome is a reduced or condensed output from
portage's displays.") I have yet hesitated to enable this option. Would
it help at all? Would "emerge" still write logs to "/var/log/portage/
*/*" and "/var/log/emerge.log"? Is there another option or "FEATURE"
setting I should use?
Any suggestions welcome :-)
Sincerely,
Rainer
