There are at least two alternatives here: use precompiled GRP packages (available for download from gentoo mirrors - not 100% uptodate right now, but will be for 1.4 release) or, compile on your faster machine in a chroot and copy over to your slower one, or even distribute compiles with distcc (natively supported by portage) or openmosix. Choosing the wrong flag: look at the big picture. Flags give you the power of choice, which is the same as the power of making mistakes, yes. Would you rather that we hardcoded defaults? -- Dan Armak Matan, Israel Public GPG key: http://cvs.gentoo.org/~danarmak/danarmak-gpg-public.key
