Yes, I've read that. I meant, is it possible to disable PIE?

It seems the PIE use flag is forced for the 17.0 profile. Is it sufficient to add -fno-pie to my CFLAGS in make.conf ?

Is there any way to avoid the @world rebuild?

Ok, updating the SLOT file for zlib/bzip2 and the DEPEND and RDEPEND files for the dependent packages seems to have worked for me:

$ echo "0/1" | tee /var/db/pkg/sys-libs/zlib-1.2.11/SLOT /var/db/pkg/app-arch/bzip2-1.0.6-r8/SLOT
$ find /var/db/pkg -name DEPEND -or -name RDEPEND | xargs sed -i -e ...

Ok, so from the GitHub issue page it seems this change was rather pointless.

Is there an easy way to change the subslot of an installed package? Or do I have to manually edit the portage database? If so, what files are relevant?

Taking a first look, it seems that the slot is stored in /var/db/pkgs ...

Chromium is not currently installed on my system. When I try to merge it, portage wants to rebuild sys-libs/zlib and numerous dependents:


These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies ....... done!
[ebuild rR ] app-arch/bzip2-1.0.6-r8 [1.0.6-r8]

Yeah, it just seems weird because this started a few weeks ago; until then the battery stopped charging at 100% and only started again at ~90%.
I now was able to change the charging thresholds using app-laptop/tpacpi-bat, that seems to solve that problem for me.

Hello,

I'm having an issue with the battery status on my ThinkPad L430. If I'm disconnecting the power supply cord and then wait a few minutes until the battery level dropped to <90% and then reconnect the power supply, the status of the battery switches to "charging". So far, everything is fine ...

Hi,

last week I updated my system to the lasted KDE version (Plasma 5.6.5 / Frameworks 5.23.0 / Qt 5.6.1) and now the "Enable compositor on startup" option is no longer working properly. If enabled, the transparency/shadows/animations for the windows are working but not for the Plasma menu and ...

A while ago I installed a few packages via pip that weren't in portage at that time. However, now I would want to remove them but don't remember exactly what I installed.

I figured `pip list` would output all packages installed by pip but the resulting list is way to long an clearly wrong. Is there ...

LUKS supports up to 8 key slots which you can add/change/remove at any time. That is, you can have e.g. one key that you hand over to your employer and up to 7 additional keys for each employee that requires access to the device.

In order be prompted for a password during startup you will need to ...

I'm experiencing the same. Commenting out GENTOO_MIRRORS did not help. The file seems to be missing on all source mirrors.
