It is optimized + to avoid doing redundant checksums for previously downloaded files that have + the correct size. Run `tail -f /var/log/emerge-fetch.log` in a + terminal to view parallel-fetch progress. Add FEATURES="-parallel-fetch" + to /etc/make.conf if you want to disable this feature. + +* For extra careful dependency handling, emerge has a new --complete-graph + option that causes it to consider the deep dependencies of all packages from + the system and world sets. With this option enabled, emerge will bail out + if it determines that the given operation will break any dependencies of + the packages that have been added to the graph. Unlike the --deep option, + the --complete-graph option does not cause any more packages to be updated + than would have otherwise been updated with the option disabled. + portage-2.1.4.1 ================================== -- cgit v1.2.3-18-g5258
