Way to decrease entropy, Chris. Why don't you email the whole list
and tell them how to implement a minute reduction in CPU cycles. ;-D
(I'm just kidding, this is a better way.)
or heck:
`emerge --ask < /tmp/welcome_to_my_world.lst`
This doesn't work, nor does
cat welcome_to_my_world.lst | emerge --ask
cat welcome_to_my_world.lst | emerge --pretend
cat welcome_to_my_world.lst | xargs emerge --ask
However,
cat welcome_to_my_world.lst | xargs emerge --pretend
does work.
I didn't try it without pretend, but I betcha it'd work.
Weird, huh?
