I skimmed thru some of the documentation about using binary pkgs online, but it kind of indicated it might not be possible to get everything in that format.
Wondering if using mostly binary pkgs is a biggish hassle or if it can be done... and done without the time-sink always involved in `emerge world'..(over time)? As a longish time gentoo user (more than 12 yrs at a guess)... I can only guess at the enormous amount of time I've spent getting thru various aspects of `emerge world'. I am sure it would be quite an astounding figure. Due to an unusual thickness of skull... I may have spent more time than the average bear. So, can someone be a gentoo user and NOT subscribe to one of the main tenets of the gentoo view of things.
