*g* I would probably do it this way. Having a make.conf-normal and a make.conf-special and a file containing the names of the 15 packages. Then an executable shell script with the name emerge in /usr/local/bin with /usr/local/bin in the path before /usr/bin and in this script: - test if the package to emerge is in the file - if so, copy make.conf-special to make.conf else copy make.conf-normal to make.conf. - then execute /usr/bin/emerge for the package to emerge But you have to avoid running multiple emerge at the same time. ;) Hartmut -- Notwendig, weil hier meine privaten Patche fehlen
