package.provided and collision protection
|
|
Hello. I've been trying to emerge some packages. I flag them ppc-macos and two common complaints I get are dependencies of autoconf and automake. macs already come with these guys but I know they aren't the latest versions. 1) Do a lot of packages require the latest version? 2) How exactly does the collision protection work? Will my system get sick if I emerge autoconf and automake this way? One program I wanted to get working was streamripper. I've compiled it from source before and it works fine.
