1 Hi,
2
3 Mainly, what came in my mind is to do something like:
4
5 !! [ U ] media-video/ati-drivers
6
7 The change is "!!", what is saying the user that he/she must be looking at
8 the output like ( at the end of the emerge ):
9
10 *
11 * Now the libs are on /usr/libs
12 *
13
14 (or whatever).
15
16 If the notification is information, the "!!" could be green, but if they are
17 warning about something, they could be red, and everything could be defined
18 on the package's ebuilds.
19 So before updating, "emerge -vuDp world", we could write down or save into
20 a file which updates' logs should we read later, and which aren't so
21 important to read, saving time not reading all of them.
22
23 Bye.
