Another reason to love Gentoo...If it doesn't work for you simply mask them again and re-emerge...it's great ;) I'm not trying to be short with you but the only people that will know are the devs (and I doubt they read this list). -Jeremy -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] broken install from LiveCD-2006.0
David Relson wrote: portage-snapshot file:///mnt/cdrom/snapshots/portage-20060123.tar.bz2 /portage-snapshot and the tarball _does_ exist. Any tips on how to get the install going? I guess I would try to emerge --sync and get the latest version from the internet. With that being said, I still haven't used the GUI installer and probably never will so my guess may be rubbish. Perhaps you could try reading the docs and installing Gentoo via cmd line? It isn't that hard trust me... ;) -Jeremy (PS. I assume the GUI installer still has _quite_ a few bugs associated with it because they have recently made a NEW category for it in bugzilla) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] rc-status and broken links
Peter Kelly wrote: Now, it shows that every service is [broken], but the advice to remove the broken service using rc-update -d (service) and add it in again does nothing. Everything is still [broken]. Anyone seen this, and have an idea how to fix it? Hmm, I had this happen once to me before...every single link in /etc/runlevels was broken. System still booted though? After re-reading your post are you saying the sym links are broken in /etc/runlevels or just in the output of rc-status? I manually fixed every sym link by hand because I had no idea what was wrong...Now that I have more experience I still don't know how to fix it because it hasn't happened again.. ??

Re: [gentoo-user] ebuild dependencies and the --tree switch
Daniel Rolls wrote: Can anybody explain or refer to an explanation of how dependencies work in Gentoo? Well, when you use the -p flag it says: These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order: I interpret that as being package A needs B so B will be installed BEFORE A. Are you following me here? With that being said, if B needs deps too then depB will be installed before B AND before A. SO...if x11-themes/gnome-icon-theme is at the root of a tree it has to be the first dep needed by a dep of kde (or directly by kde) which portage has so graciously figured out for you. Or I could tell you that you just need to read the tree output from the bottom up to figure it out ;) I encourage you to try emerge -pve xorg-x11 with and without the --tree flag and perhaps it will make more sense.

Re: [gentoo-user] emerge only pkg not dependdencies...
Meino Christian Cramer wrote: Hi, I looked through the manpage of emerge to find an option to tell emerge just to install a certain package and to skip all dependencies.
