  • [gentoo-user] Shared distfiles directory between different virtual mach

    From whiteman808@21:1/5 to All on Wed Nov 6 18:20:01 2024
    Hi,

    Let's say I have a shared by NFS /var/cache/distfiles directory between miscellaneous Gentoo VMs whose purpose is to build binaries for
    different machines.

    How can I prevent portage from overwriting the same source files in the distfiles directory and possible checksum mismatches caused by that
    behavior if I tell emerge to update @world simultaneously on these
    different binary package servers?

    Thank you,
    whiteman808

    portage uses a lockfile for every download, so the problem does not exist.
