 |
|
i have followed all the previous steps, and now i'm at the "Configuring the network" stage in the install handbook, where i get this..
| Code: | # emerge --ask --noreplace net-misc/netifrc
setlocale: unsupported locale setting
!!! SYNC setting found in make.conf.
This setting is Deprecated and no longer used. Please ensure your 'sync-type' and 'sync-uri' are set correctly in /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf
setlocale: unsupported locale setting
!!! '--ask --noreplace' is not a valid package atom.
!!! Please check ebuild(5) for full details. |
i did a search and it seems like i have that installed. but i can't seem to make sense of the output.[/code] |

josephg ...
there are a couple of issues there ... first the locale. I assume you've edited /etc/locale.gen, run 'locale-gen', and run 'eselect locale set {n}' (where '{n}' is number provided by 'eselect locale list'). Subsequently you've run 'env-update && source /etc/profile' ... correct? If yes, then please provide the output of 'locale' and 'locale -a'.
Secondly, you have 'SYNC' in make.conf ... this is now obsolete, comment it and add the following gentoo.conf (create the directory if it doesn't exist):
| /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf: | [DEFAULT]
main-repo = gentoo
[gentoo]
location = /usr/portage
sync-type = rsync
sync-uri = rsync://rsync.{COUNTRY_ID_HERE}.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage |
... where '{COUNTRY_ID_HERE}' would be as you have in the now obsolete SYNC, ie 'us', 'de', or what-have-you.
HTH & best ... khay |

thank you khay
those have been resolved in another thread.
| /etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf: | [DEFAULT]
main-repo = gentoo
[gentoo]
location = /usr/portage
sync-type = git
sync-uri = https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/gentoo
auto-sync = yes |
also i chroot in another terminal, and forgot to source /etc/profile
my concern was about these
