This comes with the caveat that all build-time dependencies must already be emerged on the system. Hope that helps. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...

[gentoo-user] Building a binary package without installing
I wish to build a binary package of glibc-2.14.1-r3. I don't want to actually install it on my system. Just build a tbz2 for it to use on another system. Is there a way to do that? Portage aborts when emerging an older glibc and won't let you proceed, so I can't just install it normally and them build a binpkg.
