 |
|
So you've changed your CFLAGS or USE flags in some significant fashion and want to remerge your entire Gentoo install. Well, you're in luck. emerge supports the -e (or --emptytree) command-line flag which virtually tweaks the package tree for the current operation so that glibc is the only merged package. So, to remerge your entire install, simply run:
If you've changed USE flags that affect glibc (nptl, pic, etc.), then run this instead:
| Code: | | emerge glibc && emerge -e world |
Changing CFLAGS normally does not require a glibc rebuild since glibc's ebuild filters out most CFLAGS settings since they can reduce glibc's stability. |

Added fun
If you don't want to lose all that output, and you still want to sleep (who really wants to watch glibc, xfree, mozilla AND OpenOffice rebuild?) then pipe stuff to tee
emerge -e world 2>&1 | tee ~/emerge_output.log
tee takes in everything it gets, writes it to the file, and spits it out to the terminal.
This way you don't miss all those einfo messages and whatnot.
