Volker, |
| 23 |
Thanks. I've not used quickpkg before but it seems like a very good |
| 24 |
short term solution. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
If I understand correctly I'd do something more or less like this? |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
1) quickpkg =qt-3.3.8xxxxxxx This creates the binary package and |
| 29 |
stores it in /usr/portage/package. I've done this step and the package |
| 30 |
is there. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
2) emerge -C =qt-3.3.8xxxxx to remove the original. Easy when I do it. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
3) emerge -pvg =qt-3.3.8b-r2 to get it to use the quickpkg version |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
This all seems to work but it complains a bit about PORTAGE_BINHOST |
| 37 |
not being set. As best I can tell that's only for using another |
| 38 |
machine to get the binary? Is that true? Is seems from these commands |
| 39 |
that it's finding the one I just made. Or is there a format for doing |
| 40 |
this and pointing at a local directory? |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
firefly ~ # emerge -pvg =x11-libs/qt-3.3.8b-r2 |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
These are the packages that would be merged, in order: |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Calculating dependencies !!! PORTAGE_BINHOST unset, but use is requested. |
| 47 |
... done! |
| 48 |
