Yep, that site works nicely. I have had a couple times it didn't have a |

file in its database but most of the time, it is in there. Great site. |

To everyone reading this, you can install app-portage/pfl and set it up |
| 19 |
in a cron to send the results once a week. I do that here to help keep |
| 20 |
the database up to date since I update pretty often. Sort of return the |
| 21 |
favor. This is especially true if you run some rarely used programs. |
