| 1 | Hi, |
| 2 | |
| 3 | when portage installs a package, it first installs it into some "shadow |
| 4 | root". Then it records all files installed before it moves the files to |
| 5 | the "real root". |
| 6 | |
| 7 | I have to do some installations on SUSE systems (which are not |
| 8 | administered by me) and I'd like to imitate that procedure there. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | Can anybody tell me if it's not too complicated and if yes, how to |
| 11 | achieve this (on a foreign system like SUSE). |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Many thanks for your help, |
| 14 | Helmut. |
