Now (I think) I figured out how to patch it. Just copied the portage-2.1_pre4-r1 to an overlay, downloaded the patch to FILESDIR, added the following line to src_unpack() and reemerged portage. patch ${WORKDIR}/${PN}-${PV}/pym/elog_modules/mod_mail.py ${FILESDIR}/mod_mail.patch It doesn't solve the problem at home though. As I understand it the error message: "!!! An error occured while trying to send logmail:\n{'[EMAIL PROTECTED]': (504, '<portage>: Sender address rejected: need fully-qualified address')}" is the result of hostname -d returning nothing? I don't know how to solve that problem. Tomorrow will show whether the patch solves the problem at the universitet network where hostname -d does return a hostname that has been set up correctly be the dhcp server. -- Bo Andresen -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
