Did you enable parallel builds? I.e. added --jobs and/or --load related options to EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS? In that case emerge uses this kind of output, because obviously you can’t display multiple builds at the same time in one window. The -v flag, to my knowledge, only affects the output of -p and -a, adding information like used and changed use flags and file size to download for each package to be installed. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla' I forbid any use of my email addresses with Facebook services. “We all know Linux is great … it does infinite loops in 5 seconds.” – Linus Torvalds
