| 25 |
yes thats a bit of a barrier, although having debian doesn't stop him |
| 26 |
installing portage AFAIK. A long time ago in a galaxy far away there was a |
| 27 |
howto on installing portage on other distros. |

| 36 |
you mean like: |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
emerge -fp target 2>&1|grep -v Calculating|grep -v '...done!'|sed -e 's/\ |
| 39 |
/\n/g' |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
The sed part transforms from a list all on one line with spaces separating |
| 42 |
to a list one per line, ie: |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
url1 url2 url3 |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
to |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
url1 |
| 49 |
url2 |
| 50 |
url3 |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Trouble is this gives a list with many alternatives for each url |
| 53 |
(depending on the number of mirrors shown in the ebuild. |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
You then need a script to download each url ONLY if one of the earlier |
| 56 |
url's for the same file hasn't worked. |
| 57 |
