[gentoo-catalyst] USE/ACCEPT_KEYWORDS in catalyst spec files

[Marko Djukic]

Hi,

How can I specify particular USE flags or ACCEPT_KEYWORDS for
individual packages within a spec file for catalyst?

I know I can specify ~x86 overall but that would just apply to all
packages. What's the correct procedure for single packages? Is there a
way to insert custom /etc/portage/package.use and package.keywords
files other than manually?

For example I have figured out that I can request specific ebuild
versions in the livecd/packages variable: =lvm2-2.02.04-r1. But what's
the best way to tell portage to allow ~x86 for that package also?


Thanks,

Marko

theres a option named
portage_confdir: /path/to/my/portageconf_dir
in the spec file
there you will put a package.use/package.keywords file in the same way
as /etc/portage/

I don't know how to globally accepting ~x86 , but u can do it app by app

ah excellent, thanks.

i thought this way, in /etc/catalyst/catalyst.conf set the var:
envscript="/root/catalyst-env.sh"

then set up the ACCEPT_KEYWORDS there. but i need the app by app method.

thanks,

That "works" except that nothing from the environment makes it into your
stage/CD make.conf file, meaning it won't have ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~arch"
and will immediately downgrade after install.  Only the /etc/portage
files remain intact.
