wxGTK is an evelopment library. I suggest to add the USE-flag to compile it with the source code in the user directory and leave the source on. This way people will be able o debug their applications that was written with the wxGTK, and they will work under their own account and not the 'root'
man emerge <snip> ROOT = [path] Use ROOT to specify the target root filesystem to be used for merging packages or ebuilds. Defaults to /. FEATURES noclean Do not delete the the source and temporary files after the merge process. </snip>
and: DISTDIR = [path] Defines the location of your local source file repository. Defaults to ${PORTDIR}/distfiles.
Jacub, Can I specify the DISTIR to the "emerge"? Something like "emerge wxGTK DISTDIR=/myhomeir --noclean".
(In reply to comment #3) > Something like "emerge wxGTK DISTDIR=/myhomeir --noclean". Please, read the man pages (man make.conf, man emerge). What you want is probably something like DISTDIR="/home/user/distfiles" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/home/user/tmp" FEATURES="noclean" emerge wxGTK (tarball goes to DISTDIR, PORTAGE_TMPDIR will contain the sources and temporary files). Not a business for use flags for sure...
