[gentoo-user] env-update does not add to path
I am running 2.6.10-gentoo-r6 on a Pentium-4 PC and cannot get certain
directories added to the path. I follow the instructions in Chapter 5
of the Gentoo Handbook. That is I create a file in the directory
[b]/etc/env.d[/b] with the additions I want for environment variables,
run [color=green]env-update && source /etc/profile[/color]. My only
problem is getting items added to the [i]path[/i]. New environment variables
appear and directories get added to the [i]manpath[/i]. The new item for the
[i]path[/i] appear in [b]/etc/profile.env{/b] but do not get added when
[color=green]source /etc/profile[/color] is run (or when a new shell is
opened, or the machine is rebooted, hot or cold). I appear to be using
the same format that is used by [i]java[/i].
The following two files in [b]/etc/env.d[/b] show what I mean.
[b]20java[/b]

This happend to me before and it was because open space after a " quote when there shouldn't of been a space. I also made the mistake of using a \ instead of / in the same editing session with the mistake above and took forever to figure it out.. HTH's JBanks JBanks __ Do you Yahoo!?

in parsing, when you've got an error on line N that doesn't go away when you
take like N away, the error comes from above. What do you've got above this
line in your make.conf?
Check for an open quote that hasn't been closed.

Check that the (non-comment) line before "CHOST" has a ending double quote
on it.

Is this 'capital O'3 or 'zero'3?

awk: cmd. line:1: (FILENAME=/etc/init.d/xfs FNR=296) warning: error writing standard output (Broken pipe)
Is anyone else getting getting this ? How could I go about fixing this and having my files updated ? Thanks in advance...

[gentoo-user] env-update broken
Hello All,
Yesterday I've emerged glibc, python and portage and now I can't preform an env-update anymore. When I try it I get this on the screen:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root # env-update
>>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...
* Caching service dependencies...
awk: cmd. line:1: (FILENAME=/etc/init.d/xfs FNR=296) warning: error writing standard output (Broken pipe)
and none of my files get updated. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this ?

[gentoo-user] env-update repair
Hi, all, Don't ask me why, but I need to "undo" the results of executing env-update on my gentoo box - is there a way to do this?? I went in to repair something from the CD, and by accident, I used env-update command in the chrooted shell. Now, when I boot up the machine, it has no information about users or passwords or whatever, gives me the wrong greeter (xdm instead of gdm), and other things like that. Now can I fix all these things without doing a clean re-install?? Thanks for any help! Denis -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
