Sandro 47 Report post Posted August 19, 2017 Hi, When i use "ego sync", all kits are automatically switched in "prime[-v]" Ego sync which commands performs? Can eix-sync be used to update the "portage + kits" or not? I'm a bit confused I'd like to know how to update the entire tree maintaining my impostation (master or prime for the various kits) Last question: i see that: auto-sync = no Is the good choice or it is better to switch to "Yes" ? Thanx. and excuse my ignorance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Oleg Vinichenko 107 Report post Posted August 19, 2017 if you use only prime branch, then use "ego sync" if you have some of kits with other branches enabled (such as master), do not use "ego sync" to update kits with other branches enabled, use following sequence of commands: cd /var/git/meta-repo git pull git submodule update chown -R portage:portage /var/git/meta-repo eix-sync does not update meta-repo, neither default branches nor any other branches. after manually updating meta-repo or if you use default branches and ego sync, you can use eix-update. 1 Sandro reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 sphakka 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2017 I guess overlays should still be synced via "eix-sync", right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 palica 15 Report post Posted December 20, 2017 eix-sync works for me on my PCs (it pulls also meta-repo changes automaticaly) so no need to use any custom scripts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
