I'm not worried about the server that was slow since I removed it. I think it was easylist or something. Maybe it was having a bad day, something slowing things down between me and it. Either way, it doesn't matter. What I'm wondering, why doesn't the log file get updated when I have to restart a fetch? It fetches fine but emerge doesn't update the logs on second attempts. I've noticed this in the past but thought it was just me hitting some sort of glitch. Thing is, I noticed it not updating several months ago and it still doesn't update on second attempts. There has to be more to this. It seems emerge has developed a bug or some nifty new feature that prevents logs from being updated. ;-) I might add, on occasion I have to switch servers. They are fast and work fine for sometimes years and then slow down or stop working completely. Me and the mirrorselect tool are pretty good friends. I even had to switch sync servers a while back. It got to where it was slow and then just plain stopped. I think it stopped hosting Gentoo stuff. The site was up and all but nothing Gentoo anymore. Still curious about emerge-fetch.log not being updated on second attempts tho. Dale :-) :-)

[gentoo-user] emerge-fetch.log not always updating
Howdy, I was in the middle of a update and noticed the server I was connected to was really slow. I edited make.conf and removed that server. I then restarted emerge so it would try the next server and hopefully be a better speed. When I used tail to monitor emerge-fetch.log, it wasn't updating the fetch progress. It stopped right where I stopped the previous attempt. It looks like this: root@fireball / # tail -f /var/log/emerge-fetch.log 166050K .. .. .. .. .. 29% 66.1K 59m17s 166100K .. .. .. .. .. 29% 81.6K 59m17s 166150K .. .. .. .. .. 29% 76.2K 59m17s 166200K .. .. .. .. .. 29% 63.7K 59m17s 166250K .. .. .. .. .. 29% 29.3K 59m19s 166300K .. .. .. .. .. 29% 31.7K 59m22s 166350K .. .. .. .. .. 29% 44.7K 59m23s 166400K .. .. .. .. .. 29% 73.7K 59m23s 166450K .. .. .. .. .. 29% 22.6K 59m27s 166500K .. .. .. .^C It should show it connecting to the next server and resuming the download but it doesn't. I see the network activity on gkrellm but nothing in the log. It is downloading tho. Gkrellm shows it is better but why is the log not showing that? Is this a bug or am I missing something? It use some other file on retries or something? Thanks. Dale :-) :-)
