From fbbe0cfe29020313ae44fb2a6afa87c2951ae028 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Zac Medico Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2019 15:24:08 -0700 Subject: Add FEATURES=pkgdir-index-trusted Trust that the PKGDIR index file is valid, meaning that no packages have been manually added or removed since the last call to emaint --fix binhost. This feature eliminates overhead involved with detection of packages that have been manually added or removed, which significantly improves performance in some cases, such as when PKGDIR resides on a high-latency network file system.
