Hi All, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
There's a new version of portage on CVS (1.5_pre8) for interested beta testers. |
| 4 |
This version includes a new program called "emerge" that can be used to merge |
| 5 |
packages and their dependencies: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
# emerge foo-1.0.ebuild |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
or |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
# emerge --pretend foo-1.0.ebuild |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
...to see a list of what would be merged (excellent for testing dependencies) |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
To use this new version, you'll need to create the following symlink: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
# cd /etc |
| 18 |
# ln -s /usr/portage/profiles/default make.profile |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Let me know what you think -- and remember, this is a test version, so it's not |
| 21 |
guaranteed to be perfect (but works for me). |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Best Regards, |
