*I* could be wrong, but this looks wrong.
The way I understand the environment overrides to work is:
You create a file in /etc/portage/env with your environment overrides:
file /etc/portage/env/notmpfs.conf:
PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/var/tmp/portage-notmp
You then instruct which packages are to use a given environment override using
package.env:
file /etc/portage/package.env:
mail-client/thunderbird notmpfs.conf
When emerge begins work on a given atom, it will look at package.env to see if
there are any environment override directives given, and if so, use the
variables defined in the specified environment file to override those in
make.conf (or the default value if not specified).
At least, this is how I use /etc/portage/{,package.}env, and afaik is *how*
it's supposed to be used (as far as I understand man portage(5)).
Please, feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.

You used the word touchy, and that is the lynch factor here. People are touchy about systemd, making the entire thing a political/social argument and not a technical one. The tree is a 100% technical creation and social/political factors do not feature. Nothing broke and you were not required to make a decision.

The delay is minimal and the sync between audio and video is good. But there is one disadvantage: I cannot see what I am recording and I cannot watch the webcams stream before I fire up the script because otherwise the device would be already in use (I dont like scripts, which simply kill other applications when called). Any ideas or hints how to manage that? Use the tee element. I'm in a hurry, so I cannot test a pipeline right now, but I will try later. Meanwhile, just try to put a queue element after each path of the tee. gst-inspect-1.0 tee OK, it took me a bit of an effort, but this is my pipeline: gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src norm=NTSC device=/dev/video1 ! queue ! deinterlace mode=1 ! videorate ! video/x-raw,format=YV12,width=720,height=480,framerate=3/1001 ! tee name=t t. ! queue ! videoconvert ! mpeg2enc ! avimux ! filesink location=file.avi t. ! queue ! videoconvert ! autovideosink My hardware is much more limited (analog RGB), so resolution and famerate are accordingly lower. This captures to an AVI file encoded to MPEG2 the video signal, and at the same time it opens a window to show the stream. It should not be that much of a problem to modify it to your needs; just notice that I didn't capture audio.

[gentoo-user] eix: error while reading from database: end of file
Hi, while trying to use eix I got constantly this error: error while reading from database: end of file regardless for what I am use eix for... How can I fix that (I run qsearch, because normally this updates a database -- but it seems, that it is not the same one...) Best regards, mcc

This wiki is full of good information. Many video packages use ffmpeg as part of their core solution... Pay attention to the myriad of flags you can set and the order of your syntax (manual) strings. http://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki Here are some ideas: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/FFmpeg You *may* be able to use the copy command of ffmpeg to spit and view the h.264 (x.264) stream in real time. Google for some more syntax snippets. Also there is zoneminder a video surveillance application. I do not know if they ever added x.264 support HTH, James

Setting rc_depend_strict to NO, fixes the problem :) With that set to YES all the services are killed. So I'll stick with NO. Still I think that all services stopped should be restarted by default. Yes, it does seem like a bug, or at least an undocumented feature. Actually found the true reason for the services not starting. When you stop samba it fails to terminate 2 instances of nbmd. So when you try to start samba it fails. But it will start normally on the second go. Both of these failures will fall within samba or openrc. flamebaitOr you could switch to systemd which I suspect could be made to handle this situation better./flamebait :) I rather not ;) You're already using some Lennartware so you're already on the slippery slope :-O
