Hi, I use ROOT and PORTAGE_CONFIGROOT to install an embedded system. But when I want to install certain packages, they pull in dependencies in my build system. An example is attached below (ROOT="/mediamachine/devroot"). Is this normal and why is this happening?
Thanks Marc Example: (build) hive mediamachine # mm_emerge -p lirc These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!
