It is better to have a separate task for the install and the build. You can set the default task to the install, but call it with just the build task. On a related sidenote, please do not expect that the install/build is in /var/tmp/portage/dnebing/image. $ROOT can be something other than / in theory (not 100% sure that it is fully supported yet or not). Also, you can change the tmp dir (PORTAGE_TMPDIR in /etc/make.conf). You should be generic enough to handle any of those cases. If you are looking for a very generic build.xml check bug #92014. I hope that helps. Please feel free to ask any other questions that you may have. Saleem Abdulrasool compnerd (at) gentoo (dot) org
