Add the following line to /etc/make.conf: PORTAGE_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" make that directory: mkdir -p /usr/local/portage download the tar/bzipped file called "quasar portage overlay" from the bug page - http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83679 unzip/tar the file so that it ends up with the ebuild having this path: /usr/local/portage/app-office/quasar/quasar-1.4.5.ebuild (I find it easier to do this in a gui like midnight commander) You should then be able to emerge quasar. > > Only those who leisurely approach that which the masses are busy about > can be busy about that which the masses take leisurely. > -- Lao Tsu > > "Murphy's Law, that brash proletarian restatement of Gödel's Theorem ..." > -- Thomas Pynchon, "Gravity's Rainbow" -- Nick Rout <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
