Destroy your disk space and "emerge all"

Try that, smartypants :-P

[Comment 4 Zhen Lin 2003-07-27 02:20:49 UTC]

#!/bin/bash
cd /usr/portage
for j in *-*
do
	cd $j
	for i in *
	do
		emerge "${j}/${i}"
	done
done

One-byte fix.

actually, it would still not work ... 
you cd ${j} but then dont cd out of it ... 
you need 'cd -' after the inner for-loop :p 

[Comment 6 Zhen Lin 2003-07-27 20:30:04 UTC]

#!/bin/bash
cd /usr/portage
PACKAGES=""
for i in *-*/*
do
	# PACKAGES="${PACKAGES} ${i}"
	emerge $i
done
# emerge $PACKAGES

WARNING: This may emerge some packages twice!

[Comment 7 Lisa Seelye (RETIRED) 2003-10-26 14:58:50 UTC]

#!/bin/bash

cd /usr/portage
for j in *-*
do
        cd $j
        for i in */*.ebuild
        do
                emerge $i
        done
        cd ..
done

Run that. ;-)

#!/bin/bash

cd /usr/portage
for j in *-*
do
        cd $j
        for i in */*.ebuild
        do
                emerge $i
        done
        cd ..
done


try that :)  Change the emerge line to "ebuild $i fetch" to grab sources.  Handy for building a _complete_ mirror.
