Hi guys, |
| 2 |
Eix is one of those packages where you just set it and forget it, and |
| 3 |
apparently I've forgotten there was even anything to set. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
I have a home PC running gentoo. If I do eix foo, and foo happens to |
| 6 |
be keyworded unmasked in my package.keywords, I get for instance: |
| 7 |
[I] dev-python/snakeoil |
| 8 |
Available versions: <yellow>(~)0.3.6.4 (~)0.3.6.5 |
| 9 |
<block-yellow>(~)0.3.7</block-yellow></yellow> |
| 10 |
Installed versions: 0.3.7(07:34:54 PHT Saturday, 10 July, 2010) |
| 11 |
Homepage: http://www.pkgcore.org/ |
| 12 |
Description: Miscellaneous python utility code. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
I try the same on a relatively young gentoo server I'm managing and |
| 15 |
* dev-python/snakeoil |
| 16 |
Available versions: <yellow>~0.3.6.4 ~0.3.6.5 ~0.3.7</yellow> |
| 17 |

It's unkeyworded, however, in my package.keywords in both machines: |
| 21 |
(home machine) |
| 22 |
madumlao@trixie ~ $ grep snakeoil -r /etc/portage/package.keywords/ |
| 23 |
/etc/portage/package.keywords/autounmask-pkgcore:dev-python/snakeoil ~amd64 |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
(server) |
| 26 |
master@zen ~ $ sudo grep -r snakeoil /etc/portage/package.keywords/ |
| 27 |
/etc/portage/package.keywords/system.keywords:dev-python/snakeoil ~x86 |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Apparently I'm missing some environment variable, but I can't for the |
| 30 |
life of me imagine how I've set it. |
| 31 |

madumlao@trixie ~/store/HeCares/Photo upload functionality $ cat /etc/eixrc |
| 33 |
# /etc/eixrc |

| 35 |
# In this file system-wide defaults for variables related to eix binaries |
| 36 |
# are stored, i.e. the variables set in this file override the built-in |
| 37 |
# defaults. Both can be overridden by ~/.eixrc and by environment variables. |
| 38 |
# |
| 39 |
# It is strongly recommended to set here only those variables which you |
| 40 |
# want to *differ* from the built-in defaults (or for which you have a |
| 41 |
# particular reason why the default should never change with an eix update). |
| 42 |
# |
| 43 |
# *Otherwise you might miss changes in the defaults in newer eix versions* |
| 44 |
# which may result in confusing behavior of the eix binaries. |
| 45 |
# |
| 46 |
# ebuilds of <=eix-0.10.3 (and >=eix-0.7.4) used to set *all* variables in |
| 47 |
# /etc/eixrc which is not recommended anymore. If you want to get such a file |
| 48 |
# (i.e. a file where all variables are described and set to the current |
| 49 |
# values resp. to the built-in default values) you can redirect the output |
| 50 |
# of the options --dump or --dump-defaults, respectively. |
| 51 |
# |
| 52 |
# However once more: To avoid unexpected problems |
| 53 |
# |
| 54 |
# *IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO SET _ALL_ VARIABLES* in /etc/eixrc |
| 55 |
# |
| 56 |
# Only set those for which you have a reason to do so! |
| 57 |
# |
| 58 |
# For the available variables and their defaults, see the output of the |
| 59 |
# options --dump or --dump-defaults. |
| 60 |
# For more detailed explanations see the manpage of eix. |

All comments for the both of them, so it must be a default I'm missing |
| 108 |
that's different for the 2 machines. Any ideas? |
