Syncing your portage tree and overlays with eix
If you want to sync your portage tree and your layman-overlays with one command, you can use
eix-sync
for that.
All you have to do is to create
/etc/eix-sync.conf
and place a
*
in it.
If you want to have a cronjob for that create for example a file named /etc/cron.weekly/eix.cron
and put something like
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/eix-sync
in it.
You can then delete all other cronjobs like emerge –sync and layman -S
As usual man eix has all the info you need.
Thank you for having posted this. Someone else told me about this command, but I forgot what it was. I found it here from Google.

Now I just have to find out if this works with emerge-delta-webrsync.
