Well, I usually like to stay closer to a tree that being maintained.
If you like you can rebuild the squashfs-porttree every day and update your
system
emerge --sync && mk_squashfs_tree && emerge -avb system && emerge -avb world &&
genpkgindex && rsync_tbz2
:-D
Ned was explaining how to use qmerge a few weeks ago so this my also be an
option.
But Im not sure how (well) qmerge can handle deps?!
It does not handle deps that well at all. Use the -KOq options when
merging stuff with it. Work out what they might be via -pv
Well I may go this route. For now, I'm going to research my options.
I will most likely wait until the work on GNAP is completed and I
can evaluate GNAP.
I do appreciated all information posted on this thread, as I continue
to research my options on how best to use the old i586 and k6 hardware
that I maintain for others to use as firewalls, dns servers and
terminal servers.
Here in Tampa Bay, both Bright house(cable) and Verizon (fios) allow
multiple static IP addresses, dns services and web services to be
hosted on home networks. I'm going the multiple IP route myself, but,
I do not want to use new or expensive hardware for these
aforementioned servers.
I have dozens of embedded boards. When it is all completed, I hope to
securely connect lots of the various uP, DSP and fpga boards to both
ethernet and a terminal server, so folks can developed and test code.
It's been a goal for a few years now. Finally, at the end of the
summer, my (consulting obligations) will be complete and I'll have the
necessary time to build this network for embedded development.
