Thanks Albert. It worked and the problem is gone. |

31 |
In a related way I've never stopped to look at /usr in the process of |
32 |
doing an install. I have an old Mac Mini that I've been trying to get |
33 |
Gentoo running on recently so in the middle of my install this morning |
34 |
I stopped after untarring the stage-3 tarball and before untarring the |
35 |
portage snapshot and found that /usr/portage doesn't exist at that |
36 |
point. |
37 |
|
38 |
Does this suggest that I'm actually free at any time to rm -r |
39 |
/usr/portage and just untar the current snapshot? Other than distfiles |
40 |
and the overhead of downloading all that stuff again is there anything |
41 |
in /usr/portage that once erased would damage the machine? |
42 |
|
43 |
I can always get most of distfile from other machines around here so |
44 |
it's really a question as to whether portage and emerge build anything |
45 |
in /usr/portage that cannot be recreated without much trouble. |

Thanks again, |
