-Portage rsync tree verification is being temporarily turned off by |
29 |
-default, starting with sys-apps/portage-2.3.24. This permits |
30 |
-stabilization of sys-apps/portage-2.3.24 while still working on bugs |
31 |
-relating to tree verification [1]: deadlocks [2] & key fetching [3]. |
32 |
- |
33 |
-If users wish to enable the 'rsync-verify' USE flag for sys-apps/portage, |
34 |
-they need to follow these steps: |
35 |
- |
36 |
-1) In order to unmask the 'rsync-verify' USE flag, create a file named |
37 |
-/etc/portage/profile/package.use.mask containing a line like the |
38 |
-following: |
39 |
- |
40 |
- sys-apps/portage -rsync-verify |
41 |
- |
42 |
-2) Once the 'rsync-verify' USE flag has been unmasked as described |
43 |
-in step 1, it can be enabled with a line like the following in |
44 |
-/etc/portage/package.use: |
45 |
- |
46 |
- sys-apps/portage rsync-verify |
47 |
- |
48 |
-3) After the configuration changes in steps 1 and 2 have been made, run |
49 |
-the following command: |
50 |
- |
51 |
- emerge --oneshot --newuse '>=sys-apps/portage-2.3.24' |
52 |
- |
53 |
-After all above steps are successfully completed, a line like the |
54 |
-following should appear in the emerge --info output for the gentoo |
55 |
-repository: |
56 |
- |
57 |
- sync-rsync-verify-metamanifest: yes |
58 |
- |
59 |
-If you wish to disable it for some reason, you can set |
60 |
-'sync-rsync-verify-metamanifest = no' in your repos.conf. |
