44 OK. I've followed the wiki article without problems except for the rebase
45 bit. I issued the rebase command in /usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload;
46 several DLLs appeared in the ls listing, but when I tried to run the
47 rebase command, it listed each one and said that it was skipping them
48 because they were nonexistent. Is this a problem? I've run the emerge
49 --sync and am attempting to emerge system, but it said that it couldn't
50 find an ebuild to satisfy sys-apps/sed-4.1.4, so I'm trying for sed-4.1.5
51 which I do have an ebuild for. I've (theoretically) cleared all packages
52 in /etc/portage/package.keywords. Now I see that my sed emerge has failed
53 because "there are no ebuilds to satisfy "cygwin-binaries/libgettextpo0"
54 How do I work around this?
