Is this something that anyone is considering doing in portage or would
it be worth trying to write a script to handle this?

No, 'fraid not. This is a FAQ, although it is not in the FAQ.

It really need to be done as part of portage, but you can get a list of
installed packages using:
/usr/lib/portage/bin/pkglist
and eliminate the duplicates (apart from the packages which need
duplicates, but that's where it starts getting messy!). Try starting with:
/usr/lib/portage/bin/pkglist | xargs emerge -p
which won't work, but gives the general approach.

Writing a script, will help a lot of people now.
Waiting for such in Portage wont.
Portage has other issues right now that have to dealt with first
(IMHO).
Tell us what you'll do :)

I recently started using gentoo, and love it. I'm working on learning the
ebuild, emerge and portage system right now, and I'll see if I can figure
out how to do something like this. I figure it'll be a great way to learn
the system, and give back to the community!!!!
I'm not gonna guarentee anything, but I'll see what I can do.

I figured out a few things that will help, but haven't spent more then a few minutes on it so far. It looks like to build a specific ebuild you need to feed it to emerge like this:
emerge sys-apps/less/less-358-r3.ebuild
So, taking the output of '/usr/lib/portage/bin/pkglist | sort' which gives you lines like:
sys-apps/less-358-r3
sys-apps/net-tools-160-r1
And then modifying them to look like:
sys-apps/less/less-358-r3.ebuild
sys-apps/net-tools/net-tools-160-r1.ebuild
Doing an "emerge -p" on them letting people "ok" or even add and remove some things at this point.....Then do the real thing. There may be an order that is wise here. I.e. gcc first......

Actually, you can do emerge =sys-apps/less-358-r3, so that will make it a
bit easier on you.

This script might do (mostly) what you're looking for. It may try to update the
odd package, but it will remerge most of your system. It will also report any
errors returned by emerge and skip any "problem" packages.

Zach

Come to think of it. Portage has this pin functionality.
Where you tell Portage which packages to upgrade just pin them to the
version you want with the above "=".
Also see the from 1.0_rc6 announcement and the docs.

Is there a way to re-compile all your packages, but NOT upgrade them?
I.e. if I have new USE or CCFLAGS settings that I want to be considered
by all packages, or just updated GCC is some significant way.
Thanks,
Sean
