|
|
is it possible to make emerge simply build a package (in my case X), and not install it just build it so i can point the cvs ati.2 gatos driver to it.
the only way i would think it could work is by commenting out the src_install() and possibly pkg_preinst(),pkt_postinst() in the ebuild.
there has to be a better way to do it. |

You can do that manual with "ebuild"... unpack the source, cd to the source directory, patch it and then compile and merge it. "man ebuild" or "ebuild --help" should help. |
