Okay. Well, here is where it gets fishy plus the emerge stuff with a stage 3 CD source: |

So do I need to do the USE flags step? Isn't this for compilation (which I am assuming is done already)? Any quick coaching in this shady area would help since I just need a Linux running. |

I'm a MkLinux user, turned LinuxPPC user, turned Yellow Dog/NetBSD/FreeBSD user. My G3 laptop died and I need Linux on this new portable because the PostgreSQL C-interface libraries (which my app uses) don't work on OSX. So I'm having to comment-out db code and simulate the database results until I get home to my Linux and BSD machines, then reintegrate and test the real code. What a waste of time. :-) (YDL disks were tosssed out about a month ago and Debian is not seeing my hard drive.) |
