The preferred approach is to use the --config-root option. (In reply to comment #3) > Please try to reproduce with the latest available portage version (currently > 2.1.6.11 or 2.2_rc30). > With 2.1.6.11 there is no difference in principle (some more packages that can't be emerged, due to newly executed emerge --sync). Is or will portage be designed to emerge binary packages for which ebuilds don't exist any more? (On the other hand the .tbz2 files should equally be suited for my intended purposes.) I'm not sure exactly what's causing your problem, but yes, portage is supposed to be able to install binaries for which there are no ebuilds available. However, if there's no ebuild available then it's supposed to prefer a version for which there is an ebuild available since it's assumed that there is something wrong with the ebuild if it's been removed from the tree (behavior imposed by bug #252167). You can use -K/--usepkgonly if you want non-existence of a corresponding to ebuild to be ignored. (In reply to comment #6) > I'm not sure exactly what's causing your problem, but yes, portage is supposed > to be able to install binaries for which there are no ebuilds available. I have found the solution now - simply omit -N (newuse) and the package will perfectly be emerged in any environment. For example: ACCEPT_CHOSTS="i386-gentoo-linux-uclibc" ROOT="./rootfs" USE="make-symlinks -crypt -ssl -ipv6 -zlib vram" emerge -vk uclibc "=busybox-1.11.1" "=e2fsprogs-1.41.2" pciutils "<dhcpcd-4.0.0" nano bluez-utils usbutils mini_httpd dropbear (In reply to comment #7) > I have found the solution now - > simply omit -N (newuse) and the package will perfectly be emerged in any > environment. Oh, I see. With --newuse it behaves like the new --binpkg-respect-use < y | n > option that we have in svn (from bug #276866 ). (In reply to comment #0) > !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.41.2" have been masked. > !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: > - sys-fs/e2fsprogs-1.41.2 (masked by: ) We should definitely fix this because it's quite confusing. |
