Good question! |

I have boa serve /usr/portage on the system where I run catalyst. |
| 17 |
That way, catalyst/emerge downloads all distfiles the first time |
| 18 |
the tbz2:s are built and then I just make sure to not delete. |
| 19 |

If I don't build a tbz2 until after the distfile is removed from |
| 21 |
mirrors I am in trouble, but then I could probably just as well |
| 22 |
pull in an updated ebuild from upstream portage. |
