IIRC, it is not possible to get a complete file list without actually |
| 23 |
compiling the package, because the different USE flags declared change |
| 24 |
which files will be installed. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
However, if you are willing to build the package without actually |
| 27 |
installing it to your system, you can run emerge with the '-B' option |
| 28 |
to build a binary package. This command creates a .tbz2 archive |
| 29 |
containing all of the files that would be installed by the package, |
| 30 |
which you can then browse through. |
