Although I advise against bootstrapping on leopard for now, because |
12 |
quite a few essential packages don't work (e.g. odcctools), this issue |
13 |
in particular can be avoided. bootstrapping python is not necessary, |
14 |
because on leopard /usr/bin/python is a working 2.5.1, which is about as |
15 |
recent as it gets. so while you might want to emerge python via 'emerge' |
16 |
at some point -- which works, too, contrary to building it via the |
17 |
bootstrapping script -- you do not need it to get a working portage. |
18 |
just skip that step. |

PS: For everybody interested in helping: this is the status: |
24 |
* odcctools don't work (and therefore gcc's ebuild doesn't work, haven't |
25 |
looked into this). i'm using /usr/bin/ld and /usr/bin/gcc as a |
26 |
workaround but that's far from optimal. as a result, LDFLAGS and |
27 |
CPPFLAGS need to be set in the make.conf. (to the usual -L / -I ) |
28 |
* gnupg 2 doesn't work. use gnupg 1 instead. |
29 |
* darwin-miscutils don't work (no big deal, we have those non-prefixed, |
30 |
more recent even) |
31 |
* ghc doesn't work (damn!) |
32 |
* apr doesn't work (and therefore subversion... no big deal, though: we |
33 |
have /usr/bin/svn on leopard) |
