I'm getting ready to dive into the apache2 install on my server. |
2 |
In preparation for this I needed things I wasn't using before like |
3 |
IMAP (see thread on web mail systems), MySQL, and ldap. |
4 |
|
5 |
Being the good little gentoo boy I updated my USE flags to include |
6 |
these and other settings that I plan to use but didn't have in before. |
7 |
|
8 |
And since my USE flags changed, I'm in the middle of doing the |
9 |
"emerge --newuse --emptytree world" (it's actually going quite well; |
10 |
out of 417 packages, only scotty failed due to some sandbox violations |
11 |
that I'm not worried about right now). |
12 |
|
13 |
I've got about 10 hours left on the recompiles (estimated), so tomorrow |
14 |
morning the next step will be to handle any /etc updates. |
15 |
|
16 |
But that's got me wondering - am I going to be looking at hundreds |
17 |
of /etc updates? |
18 |
|
19 |
If I am, I'm certain I don't need them as my existing configs are |
20 |
all working fine. |
21 |
|
22 |
So if I am looking at hundreds of /etc updates that I don't really |
23 |
want to have to wade through, what would be the easiest way to purge |
24 |
them all? |
25 |
|
26 |
Thanks in advance, |
