Regardless, here's a few points=20 on the version I'm reading: - pkg_pretend() and a default src_install() would be excellent to have. - docompress is good - doheader/doinclude would be nice, same for dodoc -r, doins symlinks - fixing problems in some existing features would be useful - I understand the reasoning for the SRC_CONFIGURE_WITH blah stuff. I=20 strongly oppose this implementation because it makes ebuilds less like=20 bash scripts that are easy to understand. Instead I suggest extending=20 use_with() and use_enable() to accept multiple sets of arguments=20 (alternately, making custom, similar functions that will take multiple=20 args). Combined with the addition of src_configure() in EAPI=3D2, the=20 amount of code could be a large reduction from existing versions without=20 raising the barrier to entry. --=20 Thanks, Donnie Donnie Berkholz Developer, Gentoo Linux Blog: http://dberkholz.wordpress.com --DNUSDXU7R7AVVM8C Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkmz9XQACgkQXVaO67S1rtsGGACgyUOv7G2LHo8i90DsoFgRioas Np4An16OItY7p58CoHwEgeQFfZBFkzCE =lFq0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --DNUSDXU7R7AVVM8C--
