Those are all just warnings. They can be safely ignored.

What it's telling you is there's no file called repo_name which has the repository's name inside the profiles directory.

When you do your first sync that's normal (because you can't possibly have a repo_name file if the entire repo's directory is empty since you haven't synced). And if you still get the warning then it means you might want to nudge the guy in charge of that repository to give it a repo_name.

I missed that part.

Since it says "/usr/portage/local/gentoo-haskell/ exists but is not a darcs repository" try this:

Collision protect stopped Open-Office. Is there a way to pick up the ebuild where it left off? It was just about to qmerge.

I guess it is a feature to be requested, the ability to run each stage of Paludis individually.

A shared lesson about using ccache with paludis:

Paludis wouldn't use the cache until I changed the ownership of "/var/tmp/ccache" from "root:portage" (the default) to "root:paludisbuild". I haven't seen this little note anywhere, so I figured I'd throw it in and hopefully save someone from a very confusing afternoon of figuring out why their cache was empty (since there's no diagnostic error message from paludis or ccache about permissions, they just go on their merry way compiling as normal).

Is NOT ACCEPTED meaning REJECTED?

There was a report on IRC, that eix is not reading paludis's config files, and it's true. It would use /etc/make.conf.
We have a hook for update-eix, but no solution for conf files, yet.

So I wrote a request on eix's bug tracker for paludis support.
Here it is: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1747784&group_id=128101&atid=710611

The developer answered that he won't support paludis as he doesn't use it, but he would probably accept patches if they were written reasonably well.

If there is anybody with enough free time and the knowledge to do it, and the will to do it, too? It would be cool to see eix support paludis, no?

Anyway, patched portage-utils have palsearch included and it works nice for me and some others too.

yeah, I don't think having -c the default is a good idea, even if I wrote the portage-utils hook so that the cache can be generated for such a large overlay, it would take time, and I'm not sure it's "worth it".

This still need a little reflexion, but since I'm no longer the maintainer, decision is not mine

The problem when you don't use the '-c' switch is that portage-utils won't "see" ebuilds which are heavily based on eclass (such as binutils, quake3 and so on), so search results can be a little misleading

. That's why this really needs more thinking!
