This i belive is very important becuase gentoo is a bit different from a normal linux. Like when installing a mod_php you run the command: ebuild .../mod_php config after installtion. See when i installed this first i had know idea. I know i know. there are some text at the end of the emerge that says what you should do. But when your doind multiple emerge's one after the other and you leave gentoo todo its thing. You don't see the text. So if there was a nice README file that explain the 'extra' setting needed on each dir in portage then it would make things a LOT easier and would be very helpful. If this already exists please ignore this email. ------------------------------------------------- Please wait while you are redirected to my signature...... -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
