One thing that was going to get on my nerves is now fixed in 0.044:
| Changelog wrote: | | - Do not record states in postsync when state is identical to the latest recorded state. |
No more redundancy when auto-recording after --sync. --- Eh. You don't know about this feature?
| demerge-ebuild wrote: | /etc/portage/postsync.d/demerge-record has been installed for convenience
If you wish for it to be automatically run at the end of every --sync simply chmod +x /etc/portage/postsync.d/demerge-record
If ever you find this to be an inconvenience simply chmod -x /etc/portage/postsync.d/demerge-record |
Enjoy!

Sorry, that I bring back this dusty thread, but I just found this tool after another system breakage due to updates (no more hibernate, stop media key tunes down volume, system sometimes hangs on starting X) and had no easy way to revert to the previous state.
First I thought I would have to write something myself. Try to emerge to a temporary file system, record files that would be overwritten and create a backup from that. Demerge is a great alternative, thank you! |
