I can think of one exception, the occasional ebuild that doesn't compile |
| 8 |
for whatever reason. Using emerge -K will only install packages that have |
| 9 |
successfully compiled on the build host. This won't protect against |
| 10 |
install bug, because the portage build the package and then installs from |
| 11 |
it, but it will catch most glitches. |
