[gentoo-user] Fetch List

[Silvio Siefke]

Hello,

is there a option that i can build a list of Requirements to download of 
a ebuild? 

I want build inkscape, but i has only mobile connection at moment. Can i
build a list which i can then later load in a cybercafe?

In the Handbook i found only a list for world. Thank u. 


Regards
Silvio

use -p -f   (pretend and fetchonly)

emerge --pretend --fetchonly package...

it will output a line per each file/url you need to fetch (and put in
the distfiles dir), one line can contain multiple alternate urls (if there are
alternative mirrors etc...), you need to fetch only one of them

IIRC, it has a small downside, that it also lists the files you allready
have downloaded in distfiles (ie those for which emerge -pv would show
0kB as size of downloads...) so you might check the list against what
you allready have...

I'm sure there will be a better method, anyway:

# emerge -p --fetchonly inkscape | grep http | cut -d ' ' -f 1

(doesn't work for inkscape on my system because emerge spits an USE
changes error, but it works for other packages).

  I usually use

    emerge --pretend --fetchonly media-gfx/inkscape > files_to_fetch.txt

or in a short form

    emerge -fp media-gfx/inkscape > files_to_fetch.txt

And after that I download the files with wget as follows:

    cat files_to_fetch.txt | cut -d " "-f 1| wget -c -i -

Note: if there are some errors during download, you may try to use
different fields in 'cut' -- like "-f 2" or "-f 3" and so on.

  Hope, this helps. :)
