[gentoo-user] coreutils binary package
Hi, Due to problems with coreutils w/ 'xattr' USE-flag (cp) can't remerge it as some other packages. So need a binary package w/o xattr, a newer version will probably solve this too (need a i686-binary). Seems i could also use the install disk to get it but don't have one available. Any hints or help will be appreciated. Thanks, Rumen -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

Thanks, Rumen busybox ;) you should have installed it. just create a cp symlink and then remerge coreutils with the buildpkg option (just in case the symlink does not get overwritten/removed). untar the package, rm the symlink, mv cp from the pgk to /bin. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

Hi, Thanks for the hint, once used busybox to recover but was a long ago. Didn't expected that 'xattr' will create such a mess (with reiser4). Thanks again.
