18 Thanks for the script, still, I don't understand it.

20 Why quickpkg? The packages are all there (because of
21 FEATURES=buildpkg in my /etc/make.conf)
22
23 But they are in e.g.
24 /usr/portage/package/dev-util/eclipse-sdk-3.4.1.tbz2
25
26 whereas on my other machines the package is in
27
28 /usr/portage/package/All/eclipse-sdk-3.4.1.tbz2
29 and
30 /usr/portage/package/dev-util/eclipse-sdk-3.4.1.tbz2
31 is only a symlink to the former.
32
33 but there is no symlink
34
35 Thanks for your help,
36 Helmut.
