Not a problem. It stimulated me to add a git bisect helper module to my growing portage live-git-overlay-and-package helper script. That'll make it easier bisecting not only pan, but other live-git ebuild packages I have installed, when necessary. =:^) For any gentooers reading... I started the script to help me easily check git whatchanged on git-based layman managed overlays. Then I modified it to give me the same ability to check git whatchanged for live-git packages, then to allow me to easily run git show <commit> on them to check individual commits from whatchanged. Then I added ebuild unpack phase support so I could check whatchanged before I actually merged the latest version. Now I've added git bisect support so I can easily bisect package regressions (like this one) using the ebuild, instead of having to clone the git repo and build manually to bisect. There's still a number of variables hard-coded for each git-live package or git-based overlay as I haven't figured out how to make that as generic as I want yet, and it works using symlinks to the script of the form pan.c (check pan's whatchanged log), pan.s (show), pan.f (fetch/unpack), pan.b g (bisect good), etc, which means you have to create the relevant script symlinks and set some vars for each package/overlay you want it to work with, but it's coming along, and works very nicely with the pan-9999 ebuild I have in my overlay and the /etc/portage/env/net-nntp/pan-9999 file, both of which I posted some months ago, and can post again (the env file in particular is quite updated) if there's anyone actually interested in using them. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
