1 hi,
2 Is it possible to get a list of the files an emerge command would
3 download?
4 I have a dial-up connection at home, so I can't download large files.
5 However, I can download them at work, put them on my usb-stick, bring
6 them home and put them on my /usr/portage/distfiles/, so I can emerge
7 the packages I want. But (there's always a but) sometimes an emerge
8 command downloads more than one file for each ebuild. So I would like to
9 have a way to know exactly which files the emerge would need, would I do
10 something like
11 % emerge xxxxx
12
13 Hope I made myself clear. Thanks in advance,
14 Matías
