25 Is syncing not yet sorted out? A fortnight later I'm still getting something
26 like 24000 manifests synced every day, and about a week ago I got all the
27 change-logs too.
28
29 When I tried syncing again just now I got all the manifests once more, and all
30 the metadata.xml files too - 45,399 files in all. I hope this isn't the new
31 steady state.

33 $ grep sync /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf
34 sync-type = rsync
35 auto-sync = yes
36 sync-uri = rsync://rsync.uk.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage
