Re: [gentoo-dev] multiple dependencies with installing packages from the CD

["Sean Cull" <code_monk@hotmail.com>]

Hi Daniel,

So, basically, as it stand right now, if a particular package has multiple 
dependencies, you need to trace backwards to find the original package that 
is needed, then install each package needed from then on.... If that makes 
any sense =)

Cheers,
Sean
