That's because it cannot find mindi: |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
bach ~ # mindi |
| 33 |
-bash: mindi: command not found |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
/usr/sbin/mindi is a broken symlink to /usr/share/mindi/mindi, which does |
| 36 |
not exist. There is a bug for this on b.g.o. (along with others for |
| 37 |
missing dependencies in the ebuild). Furthermore, it's not clear at all |
| 38 |
what the current portage status of mondo-rescue is. |
| 39 |
The liquidx overlay has newer mondo ebuilds, but doing a quick check they |
| 40 |
seem to be broken too. |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
It's perhaps easier to use some other tool with better "official" portage |
| 43 |
support, like dar/kdar (yes, I'm aware that I am the one that suggested |
| 44 |
mondorescue in the first place, but at that time I was using it under |
| 45 |
LFS, not gentoo. Nevertheless, I thought setting it up under gentoo |
| 46 |
should have been easy - hence my advice -, but it seems that I was |
| 47 |
wrong. My apologies). |
