When used in combination with --pretend all the SRC_URIs will be displayed multiple mirrors per line, one line per file. So just do an "emerge -f apache", then untar the source from /usr/portage to a dircectory of your choice, then modifiy and compile it like you want. cu lukas -- ** PGP-key available on keyserver pgp.mit.edu ** 3261 D27B D604 8B8A D6BF 74ED D0E8 99D7 D3B9 F7CE Please don't sign your public mail unless your PGP-key is available for everyone!
