> okay, first verify that those programs are on the box. if they ALL are, rpm --nodeps rpmname will cause it to ignore them. the problem is your rpm database does not reflect the installed packages, because they weren't installed with rpm... maybe if someone has a way to import the information portage maintains into the rpm db......?
Thanks for this but how would I check each requirement ? My world file is: sys-apps/slocate net-ftp/ncftp sys-kernel/gentoo-sources net-ftp/gftp app-arch/rpm dev-util/strace app-editors/vim net-dns/bind-tools sys-process/vixie-cron app-arch/zip media-gfx/imagemagick www-client/lynx sys-boot/grub sys-kernel/linux-headers sys-fs/reiserfsprogs net-fs/samba www-client/links app-admin/syslog-ng app-editors/nano app-editors/nedit sys-libs/glibc But aren't a lot of what it needs possibly handled by glibc ?
