Hi all,
I was just wondering about sharing the /usr/portage directory through
nfs between multiple computers. I have everything set up, and I have it
running between two so far, but I'm getting QA notices. This got me
wondering if there are any issues with sharing /usr/portage between
different archs. I have two other computers that I would also like on
this setup (p3 laptop, and p3 desktop). I'm assuming that the problems
are going to arise with the zeon->amd64 comps rather than the other two.
Here's what I'm seeing:
SERVER: dual Zeon 2.6Ghz
zeon ~ # emerge --sync
<snipped update>
Performing Global Updates: /usr/portage/profiles/updates/4Q-2005
(Could take a couple of minutes if you have a lot of binary packages.)
.='update pass' *='binary update' @='/var/db move'
s='/var/db SLOT move' S='binary SLOT move' p='update
/etc/portage/package.*'
....
CLIENT: AMD Athlon64 3.0Ghz
amd64 ~ # emerge --update --deep --newuse --pretend -v world
Performing Global Updates: /usr/portage/profiles/updates/4Q-2005
(Could take a couple of minutes if you have a lot of binary packages.)
.='update pass' *='binary update' @='/var/db move'
s='/var/db SLOT move' S='binary SLOT move' p='update
/etc/portage/package.*'
....
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating world dependencies \QA Notice: USE Flag 'elibc_uclibc' not
in IUSE for sys-devel/libperl-5.8.5-r1
QA Notice: USE Flag 'elibc_uclibc' not in IUSE for sys-devel/libperl-5.8.5
<snipped packages>
The QA Notices only show up on the first emerge after doing a --sync on
the server. Is this something I should be concerned with, or are the QA
Notices not that big of deal? And am I going to run into other issues?
I haven't emerged anything just yet since I don't feel like rebuilding
anything in case it blows up or something.
Thanks all,
Chris Frederick
