This sounds like the way I used to work in RedHat - install the base OS but use tarballs for the important stuff like Apache, MySQL, etc. (Of course, once you have several boxes like this it becomes a nightmare to maintain, which was a good reason for me to switch to Gentoo ;-) But package updates seem to be more frequent with Gentoo than RH. > I really like gentoo a lot, I'm trying to get more familiar with the > workstation end of it, and at the the same time clean up the systems, > remove the manually compiled programs and use the package system to make > them more proficient. All very good - the Portage manuals are good reading. Once you get the hang of it, maintenance is a snap. -- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
RE: [gentoo-user] Emerge PHP+ Apache
I use the package system for a lot just not everything. I'm beginning to use it for more stuff. I use to work in Redhat a lot so the package system was not the first thing I noticed in gentoo. I really like gentoo a lot, I'm trying to get more familiar with the workstation end of it, and at the the same time clean up the systems, remove the manually compiled programs and use the package system to make them more proficient. -Original Message- From: A.

Wow - one wonders why you picked Gentoo if not for the package system??? -- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Since you have read the manual, you will know how to set the appropriate options to get the configuration you desire.

[gentoo-user] Emerge PHP+ Apache
Hi, I've been messing with gentoo for around 2 years now and still have not learned the full functionality of emerge. I've got 5 systems and I'm building a new one and would like to use the full functionality of emerge. To install apache and PHP i've always manually compiled the two. How does emerge do this and what is the command to type in emerge to get it to do this? Thanks! CR -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
