I have several computers on the network, all running gentoo with no gcc or any header files. I then have an offline machine that gets everything compiled and put on a shared /usr/portage for all the machines to just emerge -k simultaneously. That way when I emerge something, I can review the config files, add some custom options and some fancy polish and quickpkg will bundle everything together all pre-configured. -- gentoo-portage-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
