Hi,

I was looking at qmerge in portage-utils. It looks very promising.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but here we go.

I would like to have support for ROOT so you can install a package in a
different root:

  ROOT=/new_root qmerge uclibc busybox

I would also be nice to be able to install a tbz2 file without needing
the /var/tmp/portage/Packages file.

  ROOT=/new_root qmerge /path/to/mypackage-1.0.tbz2

Sorry if this is the wrong place for asking for it.

Thanks!
