+.I [options] --update [ATOM]\fR... |
| 21 |
+.SH "DESCRIPTION" |
| 22 |
+The egencache program generates metadata cache for ebuild repositories. |
| 23 |
+.SH "ATOMS" |
| 24 |
+An optional list of specific package atoms to update. If no package atoms are |
| 25 |
+specified then all will be updated. See ebuild(5) for the details on package |
| 26 |
+atom syntax. |
| 27 |
+.SH OPTIONS |
| 28 |
+.TP |
| 29 |
+.BR "\-\-cache\-dir=CACHE_DIR" |
| 30 |
+Location of the metadata cache. |
| 31 |
+.br |
| 32 |
+Defaults to /var/cache/edb/dep. |
| 33 |
+.TP |
| 34 |
+.BR "\-\-config\-root=CONFIG_ROOT" |
| 35 |
+Location of portage config files. |
| 36 |
+.br |
| 37 |
+Defaults to /. |
| 38 |
+.TP |
| 39 |
+.BR "\-\-ignore-default-opts" |
| 40 |
+Causes \fIEGENCACHE_DEFAULT_OPTS\fR to be ignored. |
| 41 |
+.TP |
| 42 |
+.BR "\-\-jobs=JOBS" |
| 43 |
+Specifies the maximum number of ebuild processes to spawn simultaneously. |
| 44 |
+Also see the related \fB\-\-load\-average\fR option. |
| 45 |
+.TP |
| 46 |
+.BR \-\-load\-average=LOAD |
| 47 |
+Specifies that maximum load allowed when spawning multiple jobs. |
| 48 |
+.TP |
| 49 |
+.BR "\-\-rsync" |
| 50 |
+When used together with the \fB\-\-update\fR options, this enables a workaround |
| 51 |
+for cases in which the content of a cache entry changes and neither the file |
| 52 |
+mtime nor size changes, preventing rsync from detecting changes. Such cases are |
| 53 |
+handled by bumping the mtime on the ebuild (and the corresponding cache entry). |
| 54 |
+This option should only be needed for distribution via something like |
| 55 |
+\fBrsync\fR(1), which relies on timestamps and file sizes to detect changes |
| 56 |
+(see \fBbug 139134\fR). It's not needed with \fBgit\fR(1) since that uses a |
| 57 |
+more thorough mechanism which allows it to detect changed inode numbers |
| 58 |
+(described in \fIracy-git.txt\fR in the git technical docs). |
| 59 |
+.TP |
| 60 |
+.BR "\-\-update [ATOM] ... " |
| 61 |
+Update the \fImetadata/cache/\fR directory (generate metadata as necessary). |
| 62 |
+If no package atoms are specified then all will be updated. |
| 63 |
+.SH "ENVIRONMENT OPTIONS" |
| 64 |
+.TP |
| 65 |
+\fBEGENCACHE_DEFAULT_OPTS\fR |
| 66 |
+If this variable is set in \fBmake.conf\fR(5) then any options that it |
| 67 |
+contains will be added to the beginning of the command line on every |
| 68 |
+invocation. These options will not be added if the |
| 69 |
+\fB\-\-ignore-default\-opts\fR option is specified. |
