Here it is what I did for the record. On my local rsync server I set |
| 18 |
PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS in /etc/make.conf as in /etc/make.globals but removed |
| 19 |
--filter=... |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Then, still on my local rsync server I did an emerge --sync so the |
| 22 |
digest files are pulled in. I also did an update of system and world. |
| 23 |
BTW here are two warnings obtained (ignored for now) |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
--- Invalid atom in /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask: |
| 26 |
=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9-p20070325 |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
!!! A file listed in the Manifest could not be found: |
| 29 |
/usr/portage/net-fs/nfs-utils/files/nfs.confd.old |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
!!! Fetch for /usr/portage/net-fs/nfs-utils/nfs-utils-1.0.12.ebuild |
| 32 |
failed, continuing... |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Now on my other boxes I proceeded with an emerge --sync to sync the |
| 35 |
portage tree with the local rsync server. A new portage version was |
| 36 |
available, then I issued an emerge portage. At the end of the emerge, |
| 37 |
the cache was updated on its own. Nevertheless I did do emerge |
| 38 |
--metadata. Is this the right time to do this? |
| 39 |

Should the information you sent be included in the rsync documentation? |
| 41 |
In the handbook |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=2 |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
the section on |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
"PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS sets a number of default variables used during sync, |
| 48 |
each space-separated. These shouldn't be changed unless you know exactly |
| 49 |
what you're doing. Note that certain absolutely required options will |
| 50 |
always be used even if PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS is empty" |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
does not welcome users to explore rsync. |

Thanks for your help. |
