I'm running an update on my netbook, and I noticed the warning about |
| 2 |
SYNC in make.conf no longer being supported. I had a look at the |
| 3 |
documentation, and gave up. It appears to be written BY developers who |
| 4 |
have several overlays on their machines, FOR developers who have several |
| 5 |
overlays on their machines, and assumes significant knowledge in |
| 6 |
managing multiple overlays on a machine. |

For those of us who run bog-standard machines without all those bells |
| 9 |
and whistles, it comes as a shock to the system. What is the |
| 10 |
quickest-n-dirtiest conversion to the "new order"? Can someone please |
| 11 |
post a bog-standard example... *WITHOUT* inheriting a gazillion eclasses |
| 12 |
and/or cascading multiple overlays? |

The SYNC statement in my make.conf is... |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
SYNC="rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" |
| 17 |
|

My /etc/portage directory is... |
