Well, of course! This is Gentoo - no rpm hell here! What you need
is "rpm -ivh --nodeps Win4Lin..."
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed so maybe I am missing something.
Why not do a emerge win4lin and be done with it? Why does it have to be
a rpm install when it is in portage? Like I said, maybe I'm missing
something here.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] / # emerge -p win4lin
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild N ] app-emulation/win4lin-5.1.1

Looks simple to me. I'm confused, which is normal for me, don't worry.

To err is human, I'm most certainly human.
I have four rigs:
1: Home built; Abit NF7 ver 2.0 w/ AMD 2500+ CPU, 1GB of ram and right now two
80GB hard drives.
2: Home built; Iwill KK266-R w/ AMD 1GHz CPU, 256MBs of ram and a 4GB drive.
3: Home built; Gigabyte GA-71XE4 w/ 800MHz CPU, 128MBs of ram and a 2.5GB
drive.
4: Compaq Proliant 6000 Server w/ Quad 200MHz CPUs, 128MBs of ram and a 4.3GB
SCSI drive.
All run Gentoo Linux, all run folding. #1 is my desktop, 2, 3, and 4 are set up as servers.
