1 I am looking for a way to seed emerge with an older pkg db so emerge can calculate
2 which packages needs to be rebuild/upgraded in order to get to the same state as the system pkg db,
3 Is that possible?
4
5 Also, is there some tool that allows med to copy just files needed for a profile?
6 Something like "cp" /etc/portage/make.profile /my/destination
