Just my two cents worth here. Often I find a need to generate a duplicate of |
| 7 |
an existing gentoo installation and to ease the build process I run this |
| 8 |
script via cron... |

|
| 10 |
#!/bin/sh |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
rm /portage.list/*.* |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
emerge -pe --color=n system > /portage.list/system.list |
| 15 |
emerge -pe --color=n world > /portage.list/world.list |
| 16 |

Basicly it generates a list of installed ebuilds for both the system and world |
| 18 |
model. |

In my normal backup routines I add /portage.list... A great way to help |
| 21 |
rebuild an exact duplicate of an existing gentoo box. |
