Afternoon all, |

As a step towards exporting my portage tree over NFS I decided to move |
| 4 |
/usr/portage to /var/portage, but leave /usr/portage/packages and |
| 5 |
/usr/portage/distfiles where they are. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
This is how it looks now: |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
$ grep DIR= /etc/portage/make.conf |
| 10 |
DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" |
| 11 |
PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" |
| 12 |
PORTDIR="/var/portage" |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
$ ls -l /etc/portage/make.profile |
| 15 |
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 51 Oct 7 15:28 /etc/portage/make.profile -> |
| 16 |
../../var/portage/profiles/default/linux/amd64/13.0 |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
$ mount | grep portage |
| 19 |
/dev/mapper/vg7-portage on /var/portage type ext4 (rw,relatime) |
| 20 |
/dev/mapper/vg7-packages on /usr/portage/packages type ext4 (rw,relatime) |
| 21 |
/dev/mapper/vg7-distfiles on /usr/portage/distfiles type ext4 (rw,relatime) |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
This seems to work OK, except for eix-update, which gives me this: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
$ eix-update |
| 26 |

| 30 |

| 31 |
Reading category 162|162 (100%) EMPTY! |
| 32 |
[...] |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Evidently something is still pointing to /usr/portage, but I can't see what. I |
| 35 |
used to have layman and a couple of overlays on this box, but they've now |
| 36 |
gone. Well, maybe I left something lying around. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
I've grepped for likely-looking strings, read the docs and prodded google, but |
| 39 |
I can't see what I'm missing. Would someone please help me out? I'm sure I'm |
| 40 |
just being dense. |
