[gentoo-user] Need help getting packages available.

[Dale]

I used to use etcat to see all versions of a package that are available
in portage.  I would like to see what versions of ppp are available but
etcat is no longer here.  I guess portage took it out.  I knew it was
coming.  I figure something out and then it is gone.  =-O

Me and equery are not the best of friends.  What command will tell me
the versions that are available, masked and all?  I think it used to be
etcat -v ppp and it will list them all.  The man page for equery may as
well be in greek.  I can't make any sense of it.

Thanks
Dale

Yes, I'm still working on this email thing.  I'm trying to connect to my
brothers ISP but it sends the wrong login/password and naturally it
won't let me in.  That new install is starting to look good for some
experimenting.  Delete /etc/ppp/* and give it a whirl.  LOL
