Hi folks!

The thing is i've a hppa machine and emerge takes ages to be done here. E.g. i ran "emerge --update --deep --newuse world -pv" then calculating dependencies takes about an hour to be done.

emerge -info output coz this may come in handy:
Code:

This is a known problem, all hppa users are suffering from it.
The problems seems to be that portage does not use the dependency cache, but instead runs through all ebuilds, which is reported to be up to 400 times slower. (emerge -pvuD world takes 3-4 hours on my machine)
The devs know about the problem and are suffering themselves.

Heya, thanks for the anwser.
However, I've done "emerge -C eselect". At last it works fast. I have no clue what eselect has to do with that.
Amazing, isnt it?

Cheers!

Edit: Ehm... I give up...it works responsibly. However, the way what I used to think is wrong now, there is nothing about the eselect. I've emerged it again but nuffin happen and it works responsibly fast so far.

The people on #gentoo-hppa just told me that reemerging python returns portage dependency calculation to nominal speed

Edit: I forgot to mention that you are also required to run http://dev.gentoo.org/~gmsoft/tools/fixmtime after the python update
