I am using gentoo now quite a while and love it but
since the last fuck up on all mirrors and mein server not ever thing seems to be sorted out none of my
emerge -up world
will complete with out any problems

Today Opara killed me Opera:
>>> emerge (1 of 78) net-www/opera-6.12 to /
>>> No message digest entry found for archive "opera-6.12-20030305.1-static-qt.i386.tar.gz."
!!! Most likely a temporary problem. Try 'emerge rsync' again later.
!!! If you are certain of the authenticity of the file then you may type
!!! the following to generate a new digest:
!!! ebuild /usr/portage/category/package/package-version.ebuild digest



is there a way to do
emerge -up world -without opera
??

FtR

PS I don not want t modifiy my world file

ok once I am here
I am usign lilo as boot loader
an removed "grub" from my world file
but an update world will allways install "grub" into my system
any known way to stop that ??

emerge inject opera

you might have to specify the whole name of opera (version etc..)

oh and mind your language please, although I doubt we have many youngsters here, you never know :)

I had this same problem with another package and did what my error message told me to
Code:
ebuild /usr/portage/category/package/package-version.ebuild digest
Its even in your error message.
Everything was just fine after that :D

To fix the opera problem do
Code:
ebuild /usr/portage/net-www/opera/opera-6.12.ebuild digest
emerge -u opera

If you do not use grub anymore and wish to remove it do
Code:
mount /boot
emerge -C grub

To find out more about emerge usage do
Code:
emerge --help | less

Have a look at /var/cache/edb/virtuals. There may be a line where grub is providing virtual/bootloader. Changing that to lilo may help.
