|
| 21 |
]] Portage rsync tree verification is being temporarily turned off by |
| 22 |
]] default, starting with sys-apps/portage-2.3.24. This permits |
| 23 |
]] stabilization of sys-apps/portage-2.3.24 while still working on bugs |
| 24 |
]] relating to tree verification [1]: deadlocks [2] & key fetching [3] |
| 25 |
]] |
| 26 |
]] [1] https://bugs.gentoo.org/650144 sys-apps/portage: [TRACKER] issues related to 'rsync-verify' USE flag |
| 27 |
