Re: [gentoo-user] keeping source
the source tarball is kept in /usr/portage/distfiles (in its tarred release format). You can study the raw (as in unpatched ) source there by untarring the source tarball. as others have said, if you want to study the source with whatever patches the ebuild has applied, use FEATURES=keepwork On Fri, 2005-05-20 at 17:38 -0700, cfk wrote: Pardon the slightly naive question.

Re: [gentoo-user] keeping source
Check out the features in /etc/make.conf. You can tell emerge to leave the source behind. On Fri, 20 May 2005, cfk wrote: Pardon the slightly naive question.
