I've taken a look into /usr/bin/emerge. There I've found these default |
| 22 |
settings for rsync: |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
"--recursive", # Recurse directories |
| 25 |
"--links", # Consider symlinks |
| 26 |
"--safe-links", # Ignore links |
| 27 |
outside of tree |
| 28 |
"--perms", # Preserve permissions |
| 29 |
"--times", # Preserive mod times |
| 30 |
"--compress", # Compress the data |
| 31 |
transmitted |
| 32 |
"--force", # Force deletion on |
| 33 |
non-empty dirs |
| 34 |
"--whole-file", # Don't do block |
| 35 |
transfers, only entire files |
| 36 |
"--delete", # Delete files that |
| 37 |
aren't in the master tree |
| 38 |
"--delete-after", # Delete only after |
| 39 |
everything else is done |
| 40 |
"--stats", # Show final |
| 41 |
statistics about what was transfered |
| 42 |
"--timeout="+str(mytimeout), # IO |
| 43 |
timeout if not done in X seconds |
| 44 |
"--exclude=/distfiles", # Exclude |
| 45 |
distfiles from consideration |
| 46 |
"--exclude=/local", # Exclude |
| 47 |
local from consideration |
| 48 |
"--exclude=/packages", # Exclude |
| 49 |
packages from consideration |
| 50 |
"--filter=H_**/files/digest-*", # |
| 51 |
Exclude manifest1 digests and delete on the receiving side |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |

Using these options to sync to a gentoo rsync mirror should give you a |
| 55 |
very basic emerge --sync. Since you don't use portage on the BSD machine |
| 56 |
you don't need to update caches etc. However, you will still get an |
| 57 |
error when syncing your clients because you don't update the server |
| 58 |
timestamp. |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
Normally you can still sync by erasing the client's timestamp but I've |
| 61 |
only tested this with existing but outdated timestamps. I don't know how |
| 62 |
emerge handles missing timestamps. |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
I'm no expert in portage, python or rsync so I can't guarantee you that |
| 65 |
what I tell you works. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
By the way: Couldn't you just install portage on OpenBSD? Since it's |
| 68 |
just python code it should work and if you don't actually emerge |
| 69 |
something it shouldn't interfere with your normal package manager. |
| 70 |
I think there is even official documentation how to reinstall portage |
| 71 |
manually without extracting a stage3. |
