You could use subdirectories of packages, if you'd like. Or you can move PKGDIR out of the tree. You mean that this is a known feature? And that it cannot circumvented? You say the only option is to keep it somewhere else. Right? what he means is that $PORTDIR/packages (/usr/portage/packages normally) is the only supported directory inside the portage tree Shouldn't this be mentioned in the documentation of portage? Probably the man-page of make.conf is a good place. Otherwise some people could take a lot of time finding what deletes their PKGDIR. |
