OHO--- here's something that I at least missed the first time I emerged eix: |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
* Please run 'update-eix' to setup the portage search database. |
| 28 |
* The database file will be located at /var/cache/eix |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
==> * If you want to use the cdb-support, you need to add |
| 31 |
==> * PORTDIR_CACHE_METHOD="cdb" |
| 32 |
==> * to you /etc/eixrc or ~/.eixrc |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
* To enable command-line completion for eix, run: |
| 35 |
* |
| 36 |
* eselect bashcomp enable eix |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
>>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache... app-portage/eix-0.3.0-r1 merged. |
| 39 |
>>> |
| 40 |
Did that-- both /etc/eixrc and ~/.eixrc were empty-- and lo and behold: |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
1) update-eix was incredibly fast, and |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
2) gave the following output: |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
update-eix |

So thanks for the suggestion to re-emerge eix, as I wouldn't have seen |
| 68 |
that einfo otherwise (I did see the second part, but apparently when I |
| 69 |
originally emerged eix I wasn't using cdb, so I ignored the message |
| 70 |
relating to it. |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
Looks solved to me-- at least enough that I'm not going to comment on |
| 73 |
your bug, which I was in the middle of when you sent this mail. But now |
| 74 |
I don't have to look silly ;-) , since the cdb support is apparently |
| 75 |
working fine, as long as one uses it. D'oh (on both of us). |
