Hi,

Is there a way of installing packages in a different prefix while still
using system packages? I've tried setting EPREFIX, however doing that
will install all dependencies in the prefix, even if there are already
installed in the system.

I was hoping to install some packages in user directories, but I also
don't want to duplicate the packages installed globally. For example,
most packages eventually depend on gcc, which I definitely don't want to
compile twice. So ideally, only dependencies that are not installed
globally should be pulled in.

I was not able to find a way of doing that, but I feel like it shouldn't
be too hard, because EPREFIX almost does what I want. Does someone know
if it's possible without too much tweaking?

Thanks,
-François-Xavier

I'm clueless on EPREFIX but if you want to avoid compiling a package twice, would the -k option help?  If you have portage set to save the binaries you compiled before, it would install from that instead of compiling things twice. 

Just thought I'd mention just in case it would help.
