Get a friend with a Gentoo machine and an internet connection to do an "emerge --fetchonly" in the packages you want and burn you a CD with the zipped files Portage will download. Then copy the files over to your /usr/portage/distfiles directory and emerge normally. You can probably do the same thing with the ebuilds (i.e., "emerge --sync", burn the ebuild directories to a CD, copy to your machine), but I don't know how "healthy" that is. -- Bira http://compexplicita.blogspot.com http://sinfoniaferida.blogspot.com -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
