Hello,
After some experiencies with emerge, it could be great that to do an emerge
with USE interactive :
$ emerge -I php
>>> ...
Use Java [Y/n]?
Use X[y/N] ?
....
I found, that there are too many errors due to USE vars that we forget to
disable or enable...
So I have taken my hands and my vim, and tried to do this, it gave a good
result.
I join the script, its name is emerge-interactive, this is in fact the emerge
script with my modifications (line 1840 to 1877)... place it in the
directory
/usr/lib/portage/bin
then
ln -s /usr/lib/portage/bin/emerge-interactive /usr/bin
To use the interactive mide, use
$ emerge-interactive -I or --interactive ....
This is my first gentoo and linux contribution so I'm waiting for some
feedback, impression, and sure critiques and amelioration (this is the first
time I script in python, so be indulgent !!)
Thanks!
Panard
