Quick question....
I looked in the emerge man pages but i cant seem to figure out how to
download all the packages using emerge and then compile them
is there some parameter that i can use?


emerge <download first parameter> <package>
?
or do i have to mess with the make.conf file?
Thanks!
regards,
Vikram

emerge -pv --newuse --columns package
to see what must be downloaded (dependencies if any to the package)
 emerge -fv --newuse --columns package
to fetch it (download)
 emerge -v --newuse --columns package
to compile your downloaded package

You are looking for "--fetchonly".

Quick note: --fetchonly is also useful if for some reason the md5 checksum
fails on the source files.

It is also very useful on a office enviroment. Normally, on offices,
at least on my personal experiences, the entire staff is consuming
bandwidth during commercial hours. So you can use a cron job to
--fetchonly the packages you want from hours 21:00 to 06:00. Then on
the next day, all you have to do is compile.
