4 Hello,
5 today I hit this annoyance, because my laptop hung in the middle of an
6 'emerge -e @world' (checking that my world set compiles with
7 gcc-4.3... stopped at ~ 300 of 700 :S )
8
9 I was looking for an entry in /var/db/pkg/<cat/pkg>/ that could have
10 told me the compiler used to build the package, but couldn't find any.
11 indeed it would be a fairly useful feature to have, both for testing
12 purposes, and for user's everyday maintenance.
13
14 please criticize this with anything constructive you can think of.

16 thanks
