Hi everyone! I'm currently preparing to use gentoo for our company servers. To speed up the process of portage and source download I set up a local mirror for both and changed the corresponding settings in /etc/make.conf of the system now to be installed. I very soon found out that there are packages, that have to be downloaded from special sites (ebuild setting RESTRICT="nomirror").
Namly this happend first to e2fsprogs-1.33. Well I'm pretty shure the appropriate source tarball exists on my local mirror since I could retrieve it manually. Same goes for man-pages-1.64 which failed next for the same reason. My question: Is there a way to tell emerge to ignore the "nomirror" setting? This probably is a simple rtfm topic, but I couldn't find any hints. Help highly appriciatet! Thanx in advance!
