Hi all, I was looking for information about the source for checksums of installed files but I didn't find. I'd like to know whether Portage makes checksums (for equery check) from installed files in /, or in /var/tmp/portage. And similarly whether it makes binary packages (when asked) from /, or again from /var/tmp/portage. It'd make sense, it'd make it from /var/tmp/portage but I'm not sure of that.
I have suspicion that my SSD doesn't work quite well, so I mount /var/tmp from memory and I'd like to know whether the final checksums and binary packages cannot be corrupted from SSD. Of course I thought about the possibility that emerging packages from possibly corrupted system is not quite OK but it seems to work. Thank you in advance for your answer. -- Jan Sever
