Hi, "bootstrapping" finished. An "emerge system" would merge 29 packages. This means that "bootstrap.sh" didn't do an "emerge system" but fullfills only dependencies. Maybe it will work with "-java" use flag but there could be more use flags with the same effect. Since all merges without errors I believe that the system will be ok. Nevertheless one can't control and change what will be installed with a "emerge -pv system" any more. What do you think? Regards Marc Schlienger -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
