You're very welcome. Yes, emerge/ebuild will clean out
the files unless you put noclean (I'm going by memory as
I'm not at a gentoo machine) in FEATURES in
/etc/make.conf. That tells them to leave the files
behind.

Brett, Marius, Donnie, Christopher & Dan,
Thanks for the great descriptions! I've got the source unpacked now
and am working on trying to apply the patches and replacing a few files.
Hopefully I can get this part handled and try the ebuild qmerge step
later this evening.
Thanks for all your

After a successful emerge, it deletes the work director

Check out man 1 ebuild and man 5 ebuild. It uses directories in /var/tmp.
The source itself (if it's a tarball) is kept in /usr/portage/distfiles. Cvs
stuff in in the distfiles under cvs-src.
The variables are defined in /etc/make.conf - see the comments in it and by
the ebuild programs them
Hi,
I'm looking for the location that emerge/ebuild places the source
code prior to building it.
1) I've found the ebuild itself in /usr/portage//
and...
2) I've found the tarball in /usr/portage/distfiles
but...
I cannot spot where the source itself actually resides. Unfortunately
for me
