I liked it too. Very useful for finding duplicate packages. Your bash |
| 2 |
style was also enlightening for me. I had no clue how to use colors until |
| 3 |
then. |

Perhaps, though, qpkg should not flag major revisions as duplicates. For |
| 6 |
instance, qpkg flags the following packages as duplicates: |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
x11-libs/qt-2.3.1 |
| 9 |
x11-libs/qt-3.0.1 |
| 10 |
media-libs/freetype-2.0.5-r1 |
| 11 |
media-libs/freetype-1.3.1-r3 |
| 12 |
sys-devel/automake-1.4_p5 |
| 13 |
sys-devel/automake-1.4-r2 |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
The first two sets are not duplicates because they are incompatible major |
| 16 |
versions. The dbm libraries also have this issue (there are three major |
| 17 |
versions in common use, though I'm not sure what's included with gentoo.) |
| 18 |
I have no idea what to do about the last set - it's not possible to tell |
| 19 |
by the name which is more recent (I'm not sure how I got into this |
| 20 |
situation either!) |
