This guard is generally used when making a simplified ebuild to be used 
with the "build image".  Or the opposite, in this case.  Only build the 
docs if this is not for the build image.

[gentoo-dev] Re: [gentoo-ebuild] Bash 2.05a with bash_completion

Hey,

  A few questions:

1) What do these 'service completions' provide over the programmable 
copletions in the current bash in portage?

2) Why arent the example docs that come with the curren bash installed?  
There is some completion code in there...

3) The bash homepage isnt http://www.gnu.org/software/bash/bash.html, its 
http://cnswww.cns.cwru.edu/~chet/bash/bashtop.html

1) The best way to get a better idea of what the patch does is to look 
through the patch file, but basically it allows you to complete on 
services in init.d followed by the scripts available commands. After 
looking at bash_completion a little more closely, it seems that service 
completion is a little RedHat specific at the moment, but I'll try to 
come up with a more generic one.

More precisely, it adds bash_servicename_completion_function (text, 
state) and related code to bashline.c/h.

Maybe I should just forget the patch and make a separate package.

2) This may have something to do with the following condition:

if [ -z "`use build`" ]

This is from Daniels Bash 2.04 ebuild. In make.conf, it says not to set 
the 'build' USE flag and it looks like this flag is used to build the 
docs in this particular ebuild. So, can't answer this very well. Any help?

You're right that bash does have example completion code and 
bash_completion is based on this.

3) Again, this was the homepage defined in the previous ebuild. I did 
check out the site you mentioned and it does seem to be the homepage. It 
does say though, that it is a GNU project so I'm inclined to leave it as 
is for now.

Finale) Yes, I've made a decision: I'm going to make a separate package 
without the service completion patch. This seems to be the simple and 
straight forward approach for now.

I've given in to simplicity. The bash package is now just that -- 
nothing fancy. I've created a new package, app-admin/bash-completion, 
for those interested in some new, swanky bash functionality. Did I 
mention that 'cd' only completes on directories?

Ah, yes. Makes sense.

Thanks.
