Hello,

When I do:

$  equery list cmake
 * Searching for cmake ...
[IP-] [  ] dev-util/cmake-3.22.2:0

Furthermore, I find no /var/tmp/portage/dev-util/cmake*

and when I do this:

$ cd /var/cache/binpkgs/dev-util

$ tar -tjvf cmake-3.22.2.tbz2  2>&1 | grep /usr/bin/cmake
-rwxr-xr-x root/root   7332776 2022-03-03 10:10 ./usr/bin/cmake

I see that a ready-to-use cmake is included.

Am I interpreting this correctly that cmake is downloaded as pre-built
binary?

Can I inhibit that?  How many pre-built binaries do I have?  How do I
get rid of them?

Incidently, I checked another package in /var/cache/binpkgs, byacc, and
it's the same.
