[gentoo-user] How do I detect that I'm on Gentoo?
Hi, The question might seem silly, but I'm writing a few lines in my 'configure.in' that should detect which distribution the package is being build on. This is for making distribution dependent modifications in the source/build scripts. So, how do I detect that I'm on gentoo? Anything like lsb_release here??

[gentoo-user] Complaint about nano postinst message
After my most recent sync and update, I checked the elogs for any configuration stuff or warnings. When a build throws a postinst message, I expect an important message, e.g. gtk2 says... == LOG: postinst You need to rebuild ebuilds that installed into /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.4.0 to do that you can use qfile from portage-utils: emerge -va1 $(qfile -qC /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.[^1]*) == I do *NOT* expect marketing fluff like nano puts out... == LOG: postinst More helpful info about nano, visit the GDP page: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/nano-basics-guide.xml == The whole point of elogs is to highlight important stuff, so people don't have to plow through reams of useless stuff. The nano URL belongs in the man page, not in the elogs. -- Walter Dnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] In linux /sbin/init is Job #1 -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

The elog system is actually for errors, warnings and, egads, info regarding a package. If those few lines of text really bother you that much you could a) filter it out, b) ignore it or c) send a patch to the nano maintainer as he obviously needs as much help as he can get. -- Albert W.

Would you mind simplifying it for me? Think about it this way: USE flags are to ebuilds as options are to automobiles. Some automobiles offer all-wheel drive as an option. Some don't offer it as an option all. And for some (e.g. Subaru) the cars all have all-wheel drive and it's not an option. Just the same as all-wheel drive (and brake pads) are not an option on a WRX, arts is apparently not an option on a noatun. The IS 250, BTW, offers AWD as an option.

Re: [gentoo-user] Maya
As far as I know the learning edition isn't available for linux, I might be wrong. They do have their commercial version which works great on linux. Unlike other company that came out with linux versions which turned out to be re-wrap of their 1.0 release of their software from 10 years ago written for linux, the Maya software works really well, and it seems very feature rich. (Not that I can make heads or tails of half the features it has).

RE: [gentoo-user] Partial net access
Have you looked at what is different between the gentoo system that can access everything and the one that can't? I recommend doing an ifconfig in a terminal on each gentoo system and compare each of them. Also check and see if there isn't any firewall rules that can be blocking access.
