Recently, while testing bugzilla-2.18.4 for x86 (bug # 107796) I ran into some interactivity. I was under the impression that emerge was supposed to be completely autonomous, and any user interaction should take place in ebuild ... config.

No, it shouldn't. interactive ebuilds make remote updating very time-consuming (you have to check wether it wants you to interact with i or not yet) and are usually not needed - just ask the user to run ebuild foo config (or whatever does thw job) manually. -- Stand still, and let the rest of the universe move [-- Attachment #2: This is a digitally signed message part --] [-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Size: 198 bytes --] ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 18+ messages in thread

Ebuilds are non-interactive compile/install... that's the design, and intention of them. I don't like opening the possibility for people to use it, mainly due to the fact A) give me an instance when it's required for compile B) interactive build scripts are idiotic (writing expect scripts for a tinderbox setup is proof enough of this) C) 15 hour upgrade/build, hanging an hour into it is going to be an ass biter. Yes, we can slap some warning into the UI tools for C, but people will still miss it on occasion, and it'll piss them off something fierce (just the same as a single failure in building results in emerge stopping).
