Subject: [gentoo-dev] Moving packages -- breaking the tree or stop updating mirrors?

1 It is time to finish the move of some new dual-lifed perl modules
2 from dev-perl to perl-core (plus virtual/). It involves updating of
3 120 packages all over the tree but mostly in dev-perl.
4
5 As this takes some time the tree will be inconsistent until it is
6 finished. I don't know how long it'll take.

8 So the question is:
9 Can we stop updating the rsync mirrors during that time easily?
10 Or even better: Can *I* stop it?
11
12 As there were problems while moving packages before, I remember we
13 were talking about a way to stop updating rsync mirrors from cvs.
14 I guess nothing was implemented?
15
16 Thanks.
