That'd be -really- neat, provided we could combine it with buildpkg/usepkg somehow: |
13 |
|
14 |
1) FEATURES="debuginfo buildpkg" emerge --emptytree world |
15 |
|
16 |
Build all packages with debugging info, store them as tbz2s |
17 |
|
18 |
2) FEATURES="usepkg" emerge --emptytree world |
19 |
|
20 |
Replace installed packages with non-debugged versions |
21 |
|
22 |
3) FEATURES="usepkg debuginfo" emerge specific-package |
23 |
|
24 |
Install just one package, (or it and all its deps) with debugging info for tracing |
25 |
that stupid window manager bug:) |
