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. |

$ 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 |
