19 I would not want it run fifty times. I would prefer if there was a way to
20 have a script run automagically when emerge finished with a batch-update.

22 That script is a usefull addition to the set of commands I use when
23 updating the server. It would help me to avoid rebuilding the initramfs
24 each time I do an update.
