Re: [gentoo-user] emerge -pvuND world versus emerge -pveuND world

Total size of downloads: 164 kB So why are there appearing some apps now for which portage has to download something? Using eix on sys-devel/binutils and net-dialup/ppp tells me that i have exactly those ebuilds listed above installed. I think that there have been made changes to this ebuild without increasing the version number. For example binutils from 2.16.1-r3 to 2.16.1-r4. So portage doesn't upgrade this package although there have been changes. Or is there a portage option i don't know until now which i have to use for getting this apps updated. Am i guessing right in any of this cases or is this another problem with portage? Actually, with the 'emptytree' option, it should be trying to rebuild everything in your 'world' set along with the dependancies using their current versions and use flags. I'm guessing that the odd behavior is because you're using it in conjunction with 'uND'. 'Update' and 'newuse' go against part of what 'emptytree' does, and 'emptytree' is as 'deep' as it gets. :) -- Trey -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] date-specific cp/mv

I'd like to be able to cp or mv certain files from a
dir according to their timestamp.
man cp mentions the '--preserve' option but I don't
think that's what I need.
Does somebody know of some sort of script or perl or
python pass that'll do it?
something akin to:
find srcdir -type f -mmin 5 -exec cp {} destdir \;
will copy all files in srcdir that have been modified within 5 minutes
to destdir. check the find man page for other ways of checking the
files or restricting how far find will recurse, etc..

Re: [gentoo-user] OT - aisleriot is gone!
On 7/22/05, Michael Sullivan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My wife was asking me last night about aisleriot. I looked on my games menu and did not see it there. I have gnome-games-2.10.0 - the docs in /usr/share/doc/gnome-games-2.10.0 say that aisleriot should be available. The README file in /usr/share/doc/gnome-games-2.10.0 listed the filename as sol and I tried locateing some of the other games included in the gnome-games package. They were in /usr/bin, but sol was not there. Any advice on this? I even re-emerged the gnome-games package last night with no luck... be sure to add the guile use flag for gnome-games. without it, sol is not built. -- trey -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] No HTML in posts?
If the sender disables HTML, no one gets it. If the recipient disables HTML, then everyone gets what everyone wants. and you're still wasting the bandwidth of the server and users. granted, for the individual user, the bandwidth used isn't that much, but think about the thousands of messages that the server has to send out for each mail it gets in. it adds up quick there. -- trey -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Dependency Question
On 4/19/05, James Colby [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: My question, when I do an emerge -p --deep --update world emerge tells me that it wants to install kde-base and kde-libs for version 3.3.2. I have upgraded my KDE to version 3.4 and have uninstalled all the KDE 3.3 packages. I assume that emerge wants to install those packages because I have a package installed that depends on them. Is there a command that I can run to find out which package that is? if you make that 'emerge -pt --deep --update' it will show you a 'tree' view that shows what depends on what. -- trey -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Question about kernel-equivalence

Hays [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ok, is: kernel-2.6.11-gentoo-r4 the same as: kernel-2.6.11.4 plus/minus the Gentoo-specific patches? possibly not. the gentoo-sources package has its own revision numbers (the -r* bit). that's not saying that the changes in the vanilla-sources (kernel.org with no extra patches) aren't included, but there's no real association between vanilla 2.6.11.4 and gentoo 2.6.11-r4 aside from the fact that they're both based on the kernel.org 2.6.11 release. looking at the patches included in gentoo-sources-2.6.11-r6 (latest stable gentoo-sources), it includes the patches for 2.6.11.6, but there the numbers aren't guaranteed to match up like that. disclaimer: i'm not one of the maintainers for gentoo-sources. they could have made a decision to hold revisions of gentoo-sources for the new stable patches that greg kh maintains in order to keep the revision numbers matching. -- trey -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
