Bug 100632 – doc/en/handbook/hb-portage-tools.xml: misc fixes

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: [OLD] Docs-user

[Description Jan Kundrát (RETIRED) 2005-07-28 13:06:10 UTC]

I've found several issues in $SUBJECT, feel free to comment/commit (patch will 
be attached): 
 
1) Portage will store files under /etc as ._cfg0000_<name> only if it would 
overwrite some file 
2) Aborting etc-update won't rollback earlier changes (possible 
missunderstanding) 
3) Adding info about $PKGDIR

This looks really good--it really does clarify exactly what happens. I think
this patch would definitely help new users understand the behavior of Portage
and its associated tools.

Based on the positive feedback expressed on #gentoo-doc :-), I'll commit it 
(with some changes, of course :-]).
