Way too complicated. emerge -pvuND world check list, ensure everything is OK, etc etc. Then emerge -vunDf world emerge -vuND world -f only fetches, it does not compile. When it completes, switch the pc off. The last emerge compiles and everything has been fetched (well usually is has been fetched). What the OP is trying to do is not really possible. Portage is designed with an assumption in mind: the host is always connected to the internet and can fetch whatever it needs to fetch whenever it needs to fetch it based on what is in the ebuilds. 100% off-line operation is not part of the spec, so the OP is always going to have to deal with occasional emerge failures due to the host being offline -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
