nonsense - of course you're able to maintain your own $BINHOST which |
| 14 |
compiles the packages (--buildpkg[only]) and have other servers in your |
| 15 |
farm that have the same $arch and USE-flags and use "emerge |
| 16 |
--{get,use}binpkg .." on them |

then actually you only need "tar" and "b[un]zip2" on the target. |

remark: add those keys to $FEATURES in /etc/make.conf and tweak the |
| 23 |
servers' repository links to your local buildhost(s) and Portage |
| 24 |
mirrors... |

Works like charm here - I've got a central host here to build all packages |
| 27 |
for identically configured cluster hosts that (e)merge the pre-built |
| 28 |
packages. It's quite a time saver |
