Thanks! Can you add some comments, like what the directories presync.d and postupdate.d are supposed to be ... as I don't have those.
I have postsync.d and don't know what is it about ... It contains a file
named q-reinitialize :
# cat /etc/portage/postsync.d/q-reinitialize
#!/bin/sh
[ -x /usr/bin/q ] && /usr/bin/q -r ${PORTAGE_QUIET:+-q}
:
