Whoops! I got it working and then added the loop. Try:
#!/bin/sh
PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages/All"
for i in $*;
do
VERSION=`emerge -s "^${i}$" 2>&1 | grep available | awk '{print
substr($0, 33)}'`
PKG="${PKGDIR}/${i}-${VERSION}.tbz2"
[ -e ${PKG} ] || emerge --nodeps -B ${i}
done
Of course this will only work if you have the necessary deps to build a
package installed. I added --nodeps as well because some packages will build
but wont run without the deps. To use it successfully you'll have to confirm
for each package before setting it up to run automatically.
