Hi, I haven't found out how to teach emerge to rsync /usr/portage/packages as well. Both, /etc/rsyncd.conf on the server and /etc/portage/rsync_excludes
only exclude distfiles. There is no server problem, since an rsync on the command line does fetch packages, too Many thanks for a hint, Helmut Jarausch Lehrstuhl fuer Numerische Mathematik RWTH - Aachen University D 52056 Aachen, Germany -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
