emerge --sync makes a call to rsync program ? I did not take the time yet to learn more about Gentoo specific softwares, but I will do that soon. Look at the sizes format in bytes. Today it often happens -well, most of the time- several Mo of download, so the byte unit is not very useful but Kb/Mb/Gb units could be a more human readable format. I used to deal with --si or -H when using df as an example. By default, size unit is byte, but when you want to understand the numbers with no mental extra operation, It is quite good to print the more suitable unit.
Let's see my previous example: [...] Total transferred file size: 3030220 bytes [...] well, if a 'human readable option' was available, we can imagine the output to be: Total transferred file size: 2.89 Mb Is there any way to do that ? Thank you. Gal' 2007/4/3, Alexander Skwar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
