Hello list just wanted to let you know: I didn't drop off the earth. I worked on the emerge.c a little this weekend. So far I've been learning a bit of busybox's structure, planning the emerge.c, and integrating some of busybox's api. Nothing worth testing so far, though.
Next week I'll have some vacation, so I'll have time to work on it. I have a question, though: what's the INDEX file? I don't exactly find one on my system, and I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be doing to update it. Any hints? Also, regarding the tbz2 format: the tbz2tool packs a dbfile onto the end of the package itself. what data is in this dbfile? how is this data generated? Pardon me, if those are silly questions, but I haven't programmed anything in portage so far...
