Re: [gentoo-user] Emerge question
Hello, this is what I was wondering. I am thinking of doing something on top on emerge to be able to build non-dependant package at the same time for the same target. I think it would be more efficient than a 'make -jx' especially for the 'world' target.

The previous incarnation is unmerged after the new is merged. One solution I could think is to add /lib/modules to CONFIG_PROTECT in ones make.conf. This prevents the removal of the module files when the previous incarnation is uninstalled. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] emerge question
Thanks, for you answer. I dislike to modify my /etc/make.conf file in this way because as you say On Tuesday 02 Septyou will have > you will have to be careful to clean after the packages you don't want to >keep old versions of. and you can forget to remove this for other packages. So it will be cool to have the possibility to give an argument to emerge. But if there is no one i will test what you suggest. regards, Philippe. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

But i would like to have this done automaticly. I don't think that will solve your problem. Rebuilding a kernel already deletes existing modules, so emerge alsa-driver etc. is needed anyway.

AUTOCLEAN="NO". Then the previous "version" of an ebuild will not be removed. This has to be set in the /etc/make.conf. And then you will have to be careful to clean after the packages you don't want to keep old versions of. -- Sigurd Stordal President of GOGS Experimental Petrologist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
[gentoo-user] emerge question
I am playing with many kernel version. And must emerge alsa-driver,nvidia-kernel for each kernel i install. My question is there is way when i emerge these two modules, to tell, with command line option to not unmerge the previous merged modules ? I know that when i do emerge i have arround 5 second to tell to portage to not umerge. But i would like to have this done automaticly. regards, Philippe. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
