Add list of URIs to be downloaded to paludis

Description (last modified by ciaranm) (diff)

paludis does not have a feature like emerge that does "emerge -fuDp world". This(In case nobody remebers what it does) lists all URIs that would be downloaded. Paludis does not currently have a method to do this. Expected behavior would be "paludis -pfi world" which would list all possible URIs that could be downloaded.

I am going to provide a patch to the docs so other users do not wonder if it is possible.

What is the use case for this functionality?

Changed 3 years ago by gentoofan23

The use case is this. To be able to list all distfiles to be downloaded. Then to take that list/generate script, run it on a machine with connectivity/fast connectivity that does not have paludis installed and get all necessary distfiles to be used on the machine with not connectivity.
