[gentoo-user] portage overlay question
hello,
I'll describe a situation
[1] Portage overlay dir => /usr/local/portage
[2] portage overlay distfiles dir => /usr/local/portage/distfiles
[3] portage dir => /usr/portage
[4] portage distfiles dir => /usr/portage/distfiles
I maintain some test ebuilds in dir [1] and i got sources of it in dir
[2]. When i want to do ebuild my.ebuild digest in [1] dir i got an error
that i dont have write permissions to [4]. but when i do it from root
user digest is done and finally written to [1]/my_program dir.
My question is how to configure properly my /etc/make.conf file to make
it possible to keep programs sources that i maintain in overlay in dir
[2] ??
Actual /etc/make.conf lines in this topic are:
PORTDIR=/usr/portage
PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/local/portage
PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/var/tmp
DISTCC_DIR=${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}/portage/.distcc
RSYNC_EXCLUDEFROM=/etc/portage/rsync.mask
I have tried line as below but then portage losed distfiles dir at all
#DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles /usr/local/portage/distfiles"
Thanks for any help

from the vim.eclass:

for me it is used to make vim modular X compatible.

Ryan Viljoen wrote: If you do a: du -hs /usr/portage/distfiles and a du -hs /usr/portage You will see that the majority of the space is taken up by the distfiles. This is where emerge stores all the packages that it downloads when installing them on your system. To decrease the size of the directory you can go through it and delete older versions of packages such as: I have: zlib-1.2.1.tar.bz2 zlib-1.2.3.tar.bz2 So you could delete zlib-1.2.1.tar.bz2 since there is a new version. I think there are some scripts out there that do such things but I havent bothered to find them. I wouldnt suggest deleting all the files since if you want to reinstall or add new packages they may require files that have been already downloaded ie: save you the time and bandwidth of redownloading them. if you use getdelta to fetch updates you can set REMOVE_OLD=true in /etc/deltup/getdelta.rc and it will delete old file as above zlib-1.2.1.tar.bz2 after successfull make of new version from patches.

Dave Nebinger wrote: I've had a lot of luck with the cdb patch for portage. It's mentioned in the gentoo wiki. I haven't measured to see how syncs are impacted but regular portage stuff seems faster.

Re: [gentoo-user] keeping hosts file in sync
Patrick Marquetecken wrote: Hi, Whats the best way to keep several /etc/host files in sync ? TIA Patrick I got that problem few days ago and tried to install MyDNS [1] little dns server great for home network. It also has easy admin script written in PHP but it is not installed during emerge mydns. So you have to unpack package from distfiles and put it into your's apache documentroot.

Re: [gentoo-user] specific version of package in /etc/portage/package.keywords
Erwin Lang wrote: hi everybody! I don't like to upgrade to ruby version 1.8.3 so i added the following line(s) (not all at the same time) to /etc/portage/package.keywords: =dev-lang/ruby-1.8.2 =dev-lang/ruby-1.8.2-r2 =dev-lang/ruby-1.8.2-r2 x86 but none of these entries kept `emerge -uva world' from upgrading ruby. what I've done wrong? thanks in advance! erwin You should use this: >=dev-lang/ruby-1.8.3 in /etc/portage/package.mask Greets Pawł -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] irc / irc-services software issue
hello, I want to run irc server with services but i cant find any tutorial how to do it. More complicated for me is what software to choose because some services dont work with all ircd's and on other hand there is no package like in debian for ex. dancer-ircd / dancer-services. I ask for some recomendations what software you are using and why? Greets Pawel -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] individual LDFLAGS per package.
Hello, I got a question if there is possibility to force some packages to use other LDFLAGS that are set globally in /etc/make.conf My global LDFLAGS are "-z combreloc -s" and there is only one package which crashes with them. It is wine. It recognizes word combreloc in that flag as a filename and crashes with no such file error. So my question is how to change LDFLAGS to empty for that one package?

[gentoo-user] treading questions
Hello, I got some problem how to set flags such as threads, itreads, linuxthreads-tls. My glibc has locally set flags: nptl nptlonly userlocales I got also set my apache - mpm-worker flag. My question is if threads flag should be set globally and -threads locally for an apache2 ebuild? or set it global and compile apache with it. ithreads is used only by perl and libperl packages. It is needed by mod_perl if i want to use perl inside threaded apache2. But in its description there are mentioned some compatibility problems. Could it break my perl if i turn it on?
