It is deprecated, which is why it is no longer in the path. My recomendation is to create a symbolic link in /usr/local/bin (which is in the default path) ln -s /usr/lib/gentoolkit/bin/qpkg /usr/local/bin/qpkg Answering your question about paths, the place to put it would be /root/.bashrc export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/gentoolkit/bin Regards, Paul -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
