Right before I ran the "scripts/bootstrap.sh files/bootstrap-1.0_rc6.packages" I ran "emerge --pretend system" and it calculated the dependancies and output all the files it should have...no problems. After the bootstrap process, I ran "emerge --pretend system" and the error I recieved goes basically as follows: "/var/db/pkg/sys-apps/texinfo is not a valid database entry....skipping file" It then outputs everything else as normal. I should have been a little more observant as I thought it might be a cvs problem with textinfo but it looks to be like it is local. Stupid question (Cuz I have no idea) Could I actually emerge the system without bootstrapping it first? If it is feasable, I would like to give it a shot and see what happens. I should probably get my ass on the mailing list too :) Thanks again! -Jason
