Predicting emerge times with genlop

First emerge genlop:

emerge -av genlop

You can now get an estimate for how long an emerge will take based on historic data and check how long an emerge has taken so far.

root@jaws:mjeg/$  emerge -p glibc | genlop --pretend
These are the pretended packages: (this may take a while; wait...)

 * sys-libs/glibc

Estimated update time: 35 minutes.
root@jaws:mjeg/$ genlop --current

 * sys-libs/glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1

      current merge time: 29 minutes and 47 seconds.
