Hi!

Well, I just got subscribed to this list... I don't know if I'm a gentoo
developer, but I think only here I'll find an answer to this question.

I'm a user of catalyst; I'm trying to make stages for some different
arquitectures, which use the newest portage and _at least_ linux 2.6 headers.
I'm using the profile portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2004.2, and there are
virtuals which refer to linux 2.6.

When catalyst tries to build stage 1 (from a stage 3), it creates a "stage1root"
in /tmp. There are copied the portage profile, and little more. Then, "emerge"
is called for installing the base packages, using environment variable "ROOT".
That "emerge" call, as a dependence, tries to install "linux-headers". In a
similar case, using the same profile, it happens that "emerge" tries to install
"gentoo-sources-2.4..." when emerging "device-mapper" (which depends on
virtual/linux-source).

Where does "emerge" read that it has to install "2.4" things? There are only the
"virtuals" in the profile, isn't it? And they relate to 2.6... I really don't
know how to tell emerge not to use "2.4" things, as I know only that he reads
the "virtuals" for satisfying virtuals' dependencies.

I hope I wrote my problem clear enough. I'm not too good writting in English. :)

Thanks!
