[gentoo-user] dll.conf file in portage?

2007-03-06 Thread Mick
Hi All,

I just noticed a file in portage which does not have the usual portage:portage 
ownership:

-rw-r--r--   1 rootroot   6 Mar  1 16:52 dll.conf

It's contents are:
=
hpaio
=

Should it be there?

In my system there is no such file as dll.conf in the portage tree. It
shouldn't be there. Do a emerge --sync and see what happens.

Hope this helps,

If it belongs to sane then what is that file doing in portage tree
as said by him rather than in /etc/sane.d ?

Thank you both.  I also have it in /etc/sane.d/ as slocate tells me:

# slocate dll.conf
/etc/sane.d/dll.conf

However, slocate does not pick up the /var/tmp/portage/dll.conf file - why is 
that?

Meanwhile, I will assume that something got messed up (see corrupted) on my 
fs.  I seem to get quite a few Konqueror crashes when I unmount and remove 
USB sticks and then try to close it.  But that's another story.

Probably because you have /var/tmp in PRUNEPATHS in /etc/updatedb.conf.
This is as it should be, there's no point in wasting time indexing
temporary directories.

Yes, that was it.

I've also noticed that although the typical directory ownership 
in /var/tmp/portage is portage:portage, there are some dirs which have 
root:portage; e.g.:

Should these be so?  BTW, my make.conf has userpriv in it.  Would it be 
relevant?
