This fails with portage >= 2.1.1 (iirc). Before that --emptytree caused all
packages to show up as New - i.e. as not installed. With portage >= 2.1.1
they'll show as installed i.e. U(pdate) or R(eplace)... `man emerge` for
details. And that's not the only thing that's flawed with that sed. It gets
the version that would be installed rather that what is installed...
This should work:
# cd /var/db/pkg && \
emerge -peq system | sed -n 's|^\[ebuild[^]]*\] \([^ $]\+\).*$|\1|p' | \
sed -r 's/-[^-]+(-r[0-9]+)*$//' | while read pkg; do
for p in "${pkg}-"*; do
quickpkg "=$p";
done;
done

It's reinstall targets and all dependencies (indirect as well as direct). It
used to be pretend nothing is installed but it doesn't really do that anymore
(would result in stupid circular deps aborts even though the deps were
installed)...

Hah, I thought `quickpkg automake` would only make a binpkg for the highest
version available. Turns out it handles all versions installed. So...
# emerge -peq system | sed -n 's|^\[ebuild[^]]*\] \([^ $]\+\).*$|\1|p' | \
sed -r 's/-[^-]+(-r[0-9]+)*$//' | sort -u | xargs quickpkg

Thanks, I was able to make the binary packages.
But my attempt to install 2006.1 on the low end machine was a disaster.
I will start a separate thread on that.
