| portage-2.1 |
| ================================== |
| |
| * new cache framework, breaking all old cache modules. |
| If you're having problems with portage_db_cdb, this is likely the cause. |
| * USE flag output ordering has changed. The old ordering is now an option |
| by the name of --alphabetical. Adding the option to EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS |
| in make.conf will restore the old behaviour permanently. |
| * The deprecated --inject has been removed, use /etc/portage/profile/package.provided |
| * The deprecated --upgradeonly has been removed, use /etc/portage/package.* |
| instead. |
| * 'emerge sync' has been deprecated, use 'emerge --sync' instead (same |
| for other actions) |
| * Tools that call emerge should override the EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS environment |
| variable or use the emerge --ignore-default-opts option. |
| * rsync option handling has been redesigned, instead of RSYNC_* variables |
| use PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS from now on. |
