It won't interfere with running ebuilds, because pgrep emerge will cause |
| 11 |
it to exit if emerge is running. Deleting anything over a day old is |
| 12 |
dangerous, think openoffice on a slow/loaded machine. ebuilds should |
| 13 |
clean up after themselves, so you only get cruft in $PORTAGE_TMPDIR when |
| 14 |
an ebuild fails. |

No, it doesn't clean distfiles, but you didn't ask about them, use eclean |
| 17 |
for that. |

As long as you do not move you can still choose any direction. |
