I can't recall where I found the documentation, but you can create a set |
8 |
in /etc/portage/sets/ with one atom per line. Then emerge @setname to |

install the packages. |

I find them really useful. For example I have a @base set listing all the |
12 |
packages I want on a new install (tmux, gentoolkit, portage-utils etc) so |
13 |
I can copy it to a new install and emerge @base to make sure I have all |
14 |
the tools I normally use. |

The word 'Windows' is a word out of an old dialect of the Apaches. |

It means: 'White man staring through glass-screen onto an hourglass...') |
