When adding a new ebuild, I want the entire ::gentoo repo to disappear so that I get warned if I forgot to do something in ::gentoo-x86. > Moreover, you can use PORTAGE_REPOSITORIES for temporary overrides > of repos.conf Well, it's not (documented?) in stable portage, so there's that =) If I normally have ::gentoo, ::gentoo-x86, and 3 or 4 overlays, how easy is it to wipe out everything except ::gentoo-x86 using PORTAGE_REPOSITORIES?
