[gentoo-user] followup
turns out my problem was profoundly simple, I hadn't updated my portage mirror list in either of the past two geological ages... (it should have reported "WAITING ON FETCH" in the emerge update, that would have saved me about 2 days figuring that out...) Mirrorselect actually worked. =O Perl cleaner or whatever it's called solved the rest... Actually just turning on yet more verbosity allowed me to manually clean everything out in a reasonable amount of time... My make.conf is starting to look like a litany of verbosity enables. -- The vaccine is a LIE. #EggCrisis White is the new Kulak. Powers are not rights.

Simple solution for that stuff is to just kill the thread. If you want help, then use an informative subject line and just explain what is going wrong. When you post hysterical subject lines and it just goes downhill from there I don't even bother reading the messages. Nobody wants to see you suffer, but nobody around here is obligated to help either, so at least try to be nice about it... -- Rich

I take it the is the closest anyone can expect to an apology for the torrent of abuse in your previous email? -- Neil Bothwick I believe the technical term is "Oops!" pgplOp08FC1tV.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature
[gentoo-user] Followup: mod_auth_ldap vs USE=ldap for apache2
Another somehwat unclear thing: In the config flag AUTH_LDAP seems to be responsible for BOTH ldap auth modules (mm_mod_auth_ldap AND mod_auth_ldap) - is there some configurable way to disentangle them? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
