Thanks.. I have created the sym-links in $PKGDIR/sys-devel directory, but now after running the "emerge" command, I am getting the following error:- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- localhost sys-devel # emerge -K1 =sys-devel/binutils-2.18-r1.tbz2 Calculating dependencies -
!!! Binary package '=sys-devel/binutils-2.18-r1.tbz2' does not exist. !!! Please ensure the tbz2 exists as specified. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- Regards Suma Sharma -----Original Message----- From: Neil Bothwick [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2008 6:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Installation of binary packages On Thu, 7 Feb 2008 17:05:39 +0530, Suma Sharma wrote: > !!!
