That means "secure". wget is the program that emerge uses to download files. In order to access "https" URLs, wget *MUST* be emerged with the "ssl" flag. You can either set it globally in your /etc/make.conf, or if you just want to affect wget, enter this line in /etc/portage/package.use net-misc/wget ssl You must emerge wget after setting the "ssl" flag, and then wget can access "https" URLs. -- Walter Dnes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> In linux /sbin/init is Job #1 My musings on technology and security at http://tech_sec.blog.ca -- [email protected] mailing list
