me again,
Is it possible when doing "emerge -p pkg" to get a list of depencities in the following format :
| Code: |
pkg-name <installed-version-gentoo> <latest-version-gentoo>
<installed-version-orig> <latest-version-orig>
...........
|
if not is there way to query on-the fly this info from somewhere, so i can do a script for this? thanx
Next question :
Is portage tightened to Gentoo, or it is loosly coupled so that it can be used with other Distros... :")
Next one :
when u want to temporarily override USE and CFLAGS what u do write to env-virables, emerge, empty env-vars ... or there is some shortcut...
I mean w/o the need to edit /etc/make.conf
thanx again |

emerge -s pkg-name will tell you installed/latest. I have no idea what you are asking with the 'orig' parts.

Theoretically portage could work with other distros. The problem then comes when you use something else to manage packages. If you use RPM and emerge, then neither knows what the other is doing.

USE="my-var-here" emerge pkg-name will set the local environment variable. Remember that it will remain set until you unset it.
