I'll dig through > logs and try to figure out what it was. Well, I couldn't find anything in my IRC logs, all I could find is that I switched away from using the key=3D"value" stuff at r10 in my svn repo, on 5 July (it's now at r213). No one else I talked to remembered why the switch was done in the first place, so I'm just going to change the format back to key=3D"value", like bash variables. Unlike most other variables in profiles, though, I am keeping these with all lowercase variable names, e.g. uid=3D"5". I'll update the documentation in my dev space tomorrow. --=20 Mike Kelly --Sig_wiF9_wmRPMjYJ1cu60IuBZG Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFI0VnokMzJ47YCzoRAoTqAJ0d12Aec+sDCle5chOeLQhFSRUqJQCeJXNb 0NfGI/k/h+GzB/j9gNgIi4c= =MzGR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_wiF9_wmRPMjYJ1cu60IuBZG-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
