either copy them from the cd/dvd into /usr/portage or change the
distfile dir in /etc/make.conf.

HOWEVER if emerge decides it wants something that is not on the cd, it
will try and download it and write it onto the cd/dvd, which is going
to crap out.

that sort of cd is not marketed by anyone as it would be a nightmare
updating it.

I've copied David's distfiles into my /usr/portage/distfiles, but when I emerge a package that I've copied this way, portage wants to download it anyway. Do I have to update something to make it know that they're there?
