As discused on a previous thread for rebuilding another gentoo box.. i have done the following:
I may be a bit of a nitwit... Started with stage 3 emerged system and some other basic things. copied make.conf and /var/cache/edb/world from another system, modified make.conf to suit.. Now when I do emerge world -p instead of building the packages in the world file it does this.. root # emerge world -p These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies *** Package in world file is not installed: app-text/spellutils etc for each package in world file. How do I force it to install things from the world file? Thanks, ooM -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
