It really is best done in the tree first, so everything is correct for the snapshot. We didn't have much issue last time because we push "manifest1_obsolete" into the snapshot, so digests are removed, anyway, but I'd *really* prefer if this were done prior to the snapshot being made. The less fudging I have to do with the snapshot, the better. -- Chris Gianelloni Release Engineering Strategic Lead Games Developer -- gentoo-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
