For such a change to apply only to webkit-gtk (or any other package you want, actually), you can try package.env. Checkout make.conf's manpages to see how it is used. Hope that helps!

[gentoo-user] VPN question
Hello everybody, I have a gentoo linux PC at home that I am using as my internet gateway. It is also running a web server and a mail server with a static IP. Everything is working fine. Now I have installed a VPN server on this system (OpenVPN) and I am using a VPN service provider to get a USA IP address. This, in its own, works fine as well. But once I bring up the VPN tunnel, the web server and the mail server become unavailable. So, I need a way to have both the VPN tunnel and my web/mail servers available simultaneously. I think some ip routing magic is required to accomplish this, but all my experiments so far didn't yield any result. I would appreciate if somebody can put me in the right direction for finding a solution. -- Timur

Note that as Holger says, you need to use /etc/portage/package.env
to ensure that you're not setting debugging flags like CFLAGS=-g
either, to stop webkit-gtk from wanting 18GB.
/etc/portage/package.env:
net-libs/webkit-gtk no-debug.conf
/etc/portage/env/no-debug.conf:
CFLAGS=put your normal CFLAGS without -g, -ggdb, etc.
CXXFLAGS=ditto

Is the web/mail server only the gatway, or is that the workstation that you're using (when, for example, trying to access the website)? This is my home network, 10.2.0.0/16. Multiple computers with Windows/Linux/Mac. On some subnets, I have gadgets that also need access to the internet. The linux PC is the internet gateway with a static IP from my ISP. But it is also used as my Linux workstation. The web server and email server must be accessible from the internet and they are accessible if the tunnel isn't up. What IP address are you using to access the web server? Its internal one, or its external one? Is the website supposed to be visible externally? I can access both the web server and the mail server from the internal network, no problems there. But, when the VPN tunnel comes up, all external accesses stop working. Ah, OK. Suppose the external IP address of your gateway is 1.2.3.4. Then that's the external address of your web/mail server as well. As a visitor, if I send a packet to 1.2.3.4, I get a response from 1.2.3.4, and everything is great. When you turn on the VPN on the gateway, it begins routing all outgoing traffic through some host in the USA. Now, as a visitor, if I send a packet to 1.2.3.4, here's what happens: me - 1.2.3.4 (request) - Your server's VPN IP (response) - VPN server in the USA (response) - me Now my TCP/IP stack wonders what a random packet from the USA is doing, and drops it, because I expected a response from 1.2.3.4. To see why there's no simple fix for this, imagine what happens if someone at Netflix HQ tries to visit your website via 1.2.3.4. If your routes would send the response back over 1.2.3.4, then they would also send your browser traffic there over 1.2.3.4. But that won't work. And if your routes would send your browser traffic over the VPN, then the web server response will go over the VPN as well. And that breaks the website. The not-simple solutions are probably going to involve reorganizing your network a bit; having a workstation, web server, and VPN client all on one box is giving you conflicting requirements. But maybe if you're lucky, you have a static public IP address on the VPN. In that case you can always access the website via the VPN address.

The thing that you really want to enforce is that incoming packets go out over the same connection that they came in on. Ignoring the fact that the last sentence doesn't really make sense, it can be done for multiple (redundant) upstream providers: http://www.lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html However, the routing table in that scenario is fixed. I wouldn't bet on OpenVPN being able to add its routes without messing something up.
