Well, I've been having a ball with ebuild. I think I'm close to having |
| 2 |
Gnome-1.4 on my system. Tonight, I just found out about emerge, so I'm |
| 3 |
using that for my gnome-core. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
One of the dependencies it tried to update was rpm-3.0.6-r1, but it |
| 6 |
couldn't find a digest. I went into sys-arch/rpm and couldn't find |
| 7 |
3.0.6-r1, but did find a regular 3.0.6. I ebuilt and merged it. When I |
| 8 |
wen't back to gnome-core, was able to emerge where I left off (it |
| 9 |
skipped rpm since I had just satisfied it). |

I thought you guys should know about this inconsistancy. It's strange |
| 12 |
that gnome-core (or one of its dependencies) wants rpm-3.0.6-r1, but the |
| 13 |
latest rpm in the portage tree is 3.0.6. Does something need to be |
| 14 |
recompiled? |

I also have a stupid question. I've been wanting to respond to your |
| 17 |
answers to my post, but can't find a way to reply via the web listing. I |
| 18 |
can sort messages, but can't reply. This is why my responses have been |
| 19 |
new posts. Is there a better way? I found I needed to re-enable the |
| 20 |
messages to be emailed to me. |

Again, Daniel, you were right. Creating my own digest did the trick. I |
| 23 |
really haven't played with any of the tools enough to figure out little |
| 24 |
nuances like that yet. |

One more thing, I noticed that when emerge/ebuild is compiling stuff, |
| 27 |
it's using march=486. I'm using a PIII and want the most optimized |
| 28 |
binaries I can get. I changed /etc/make.defaults CFLAGS to m686, but |
| 29 |
that hasn't seemed to help yet. Although, I am still using the same |
| 30 |
xterm session from before. That might be it. Did I make the right change? |
