I sync each night myself. I'm on a 'slow as syrup at the north pole' dial-up and it will take me about three nights to get OOo2 downloaded. If I wait to long, they may update OOo and KDE all at the same time. O_O That would take a week to download, maybe more. Speaking of north pole, it is cold down here. shivers 42% [+=== ] 66,602,20812.47K/s ETA 8:57:45 The + is from last night and the = are from tonight. I had to stop it a couple times to get work for folding. Maybe I can finish it today but maybe tomorrow. I'm sure there is more after that one though. :-( Dale :-) -- To err is human, I'm most certainly human. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] Restore - /usr/portage/packages
I was constantly getting error after emerge sync so I removed rm -r /usr/portage/packages. Now, for example openoffice-bin-1.1.5 will not upgrade automatically to openoffice-bin-2.0. What is causing it? Is there a way to restore /usr/portage/packages ? Yes, I have created /usr/portage/packages - directory after removing it. -- #Joseph -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

You have to add OOo to package.keywords before you can update it. Kristian Poul Herkild -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
