After unmerging the newest version of portage, reinstalling the version that |
| 6 |
came on the cd, and then remerging the latest version it appears to be |
| 7 |
working again. I had to create my own virtual/glibc entry in the db for |
| 8 |
some reason but things seem to work now. |

BTW, is pkgmerge for .tbz2 packages only or can it deal with .ebuild files? |
| 11 |
If its for .tbz2 messages only perhaps it should generate a proper error |
| 12 |
message informing the user instead of spitting out the python error: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
root@gentoo zlib > pkgmerge zlib-1.1.3-r2.ebuild |
| 15 |
Traceback (most recent call last): |
| 16 |
File "/usr/sbin/pkgmerge", line 68, in ? |
| 17 |
mykey=mytbz2.getelements("CATEGORY")[0]+"/"+mypkg[:-5] |
| 18 |
IndexError: list index out of range |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
If pkgmerge is in fact for .tbz2 files only, is there anyway to get ebuild |
| 21 |
to autobuild dependencies yet? Its rather tedious without it due to all the |
| 22 |
dependies for things such as gnome... |

Actually after reading the dhcpcd manpage it would seem rather simple to do |
| 35 |
DHCP on an interface... if I have any luck I'll send the mailing list my |
| 36 |
modified .eth0 file for use as an example or whatever :) |

Thanks for your time... |
