Folks
Here's my script for trying portage. I'm running on RHEL4 and getting
the problems I've sent earlier. If you've got a few minutes try it
out on your computer. Let me know if it works for you ;)
#!/bin/sh
export PREFIX=/tmp/Mar17
#this directory has portage and the ebuild tree from the wiki
#unzipped here
#it also has a copy of the normal portage profiles in "normal-profiles"
export MYBASE=/home/spike/portage
export TREE=${MYBASE}/portage-alt-prefix
export PORTCODE=${MYBASE}/portage-prefix-2.1.11
GROUP=spike
cd $PORTCODE
#./configure --prefix=${PREFIX} --with-user=`whoami`
--with-group=${GROUP} --sysconfdir=${PREFIX}/etc
--with-rootuser=`whoami` --with-rootuid=`id -u`
--with-offset-prefix=${PREFIX}
./configure --prefix=${PREFIX}/usr --with-user=`whoami`
--with-group=${GROUP} --sysconfdir=${PREFIX}/etc
--with-rootuser=`whoami` --with-rootuid=`id -u`
--with-offset-prefix=${PREFIX} --with-wheelgroup=${GROUP}
--with-wheelgid=`id -g`
make
make install
cd ${PREFIX}
mkdir -p usr/portage
cp -r ${TREE}/* usr/portage
export PATH=${PREFIX}/usr/bin:${PREFIX}/usr/sbin:${PATH}
mkdir etc
cp ${PORTCODE}/cnf/make.conf etc/
#SET PREFIX in make.conf
#PREPEND PREFIX TO A FEW PLACES
mkdir -p ${PREFIX}/etc/portage
#end script
