You could put RESTRICT=mirror in the ebuild, or possibly in package.env -- Neil Bothwick If Yoda so strong in force is, why words in right order he cannot put? pgpxWilwOmKga.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature
Re: [gentoo-user] repoman the optimist

Someone suggested setting an empty mirror string as an environment variable but I had no success.
