[gentoo-user] Rebuild entire system - recompile all installed packages
Hi! Because I've got way too much time at my hands *G*, I'd like to rebuild my entire system - IOW: I want to recompile all the packages that are currently installed. How do I do that? If I check how many packages are currently installed by running ls -1d /var/db/pkg/*/* | wc -l I see that there are 1192. But if I count the number of ebuilds returned by emerge -Dep world I get only 292. So emerge -De world would NOT re-compile everything that's on my system. How can I recompile everything that's currently installed and avoid cluttering my world file with unneeded entries? Thanks a lot, Alexander Skwar -- wok, n.: Something to thwow at a wabbit. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Try the --emptytree option (with --pretend of course). On 6/4/05, Alexander Skwar [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi!

Ha, brain-fart today. I see you already tried that. You can try --onlydeps.

Even on your system, emerge -De world would NOT re-install everything that's already installed. You'd miss 47 packages. Question: What 47 packages would be missing and why? And also, how would you re-emerge everything on your system? Alexander Skwar -- This is not the age of pamphleteers. It is the age of the engineers. The spark-gap is mightier than the pen.
