1 Hallo,

3 If /usr/portage/metadata/cache is really a cache, shouldn't it be generated by the local protage instead of being tranferred in rsyncs? I'm sure I'm missing something here, because obviusly this dir shouldn't be rsyncd if not necessary (it contains about 10000 files).

5 What's the reason why it can't be generated locally as ebuilds get parsed by portage.py?

7 Bye,
