Agreed Neil. Actually I'm pretty much running that things after every step. It only takes about 20 seconds to run and is a nice early warning system for things to come. What I'd really like would be for eix-test-obsolete to have an option to run against the remote rsync server *before* I run eix-sync so that I can see what my issues will be after the sync operation removes things. That would give me a nice heads up that I need to archive something before I get sent to the CVS attic. Thanks, Mark -- [email protected] mailing list
