Hi folks,


is there an emerge option for building just a single package w/o
its dependencies (if deps are required, it should fail) ?

I'd like to set up an automatic update for certain packages,
but w/o touching all the rest not explicitly given.

I found this in the emerge man page:

--nodeps (-O)
Merges specified packages without merging any
dependencies. Note that the build may fail if the

dependencies aren't satisfied.


Is that what you are looking for?

Yes, and it is clearly documented in the emerge man page, along with
several other useful options.

We are Pentium of Borg. You will be approximated. Resistance may or may
not be futile, except on every other Tuesday when it is a definite maybe.
