Added this use flag to allow symbolic links from a user’s home directory to a shared dir. What doesn’t pure-ftpd do? 😛
I have started tweaking emacs more to my liking. The first step was to improve the colors. Emacs22 and Putty beta 0.60 can work together to give you 256 colors to choose from, but you’ll have to do the following: (continued…)
Why did you guys have to break things? Apache changed defaults to be more “secure”, and gentoo changed where the settings are located. There was no good reason. You’re not going to make someone’s Apache install secure by changing one critical setting. And changing the location of the settings when the defaults change was just mean. 😛 Sigh.
To get your old stuff working again once you emerge Apache 2.2, dig in here and comment out the bold line:
emacs /etc/apache/modules.d/00_default_settings.conf
# We configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of features.
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order deny,allow
# Deny from all
</Directory>
Then you’ll have to re-emerge all your apache modules (mod_perl, php, etc.) and fix your APACHE2_OPTS that probably got trashed, in /etc/conf.d/apache2. Another day swimming in the chaos of open source software, whee.
For some reason I haven’t seen this in the various MythTV HowTo’s:
mythfilldatabase --do-channel-updates
Note that this will wipe out any customizations you’ve done to channels. (continued…)
Note to self: run this once in a while…
revdep-rebuild -X -i -a
Should clean things up. I needed to do this to fix a nasty change to the libexpat library that wasn’t handled cleanly by portage.
I’ve seen this suggested as a simpler alternative. Take the packages from the output and re-emerge them.
equery depends dev-libs/expat
Move on.
