Thanks... this wasn't a huge installation. I'm not sure how many |
| 21 |
installed packages were there... but I was able to get it done in |
| 22 |
about 1 hr. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
emerge was able to gulp long cmdlines constructed like: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
eix -I >installed |
| 27 |
Then a series of this type command: |
| 28 |
emerge -vC `awk '/x11-drivers/{print $2}'` |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Rebuilding the `installed' file occasionally. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
I'm not sure what kind of a mess I've created yet .. I just started |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
emerge -vuDe world |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Today about 1/2 hr ago |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
But at least the `world' file was pared way down; no monster kde |
| 39 |
compiles to wait out. |
