I need binary for large packages that can't build on client (2GiB RAM). According to https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/package.env I've created /etc/portage/env/binary which contains next line: EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--getbinpkgonly" And the /etc/portage/package.env which contains next line: dev-qt/qtwebengine binary But there's no attempts to download binary on the client when trying to emerge qtwebengine. However, if I add USE="-alsa", for example, to /etc/portage/env/binary it picked up USE.
This is confirmed. Any chance that we can have this feature?
We could support something like this, but per-package EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS is not the most appealing way to express it.
Is there a way to achieve this functionality ? In my case, have some particular packages ignore binpkg-respect-use (be forced to =n and accept binary, while almost all be =y) ? Thanks!
