1)
Jason, can you give me an example. ;) I'm making my first ebuild, so that's
why I came here.


2)
I have more questions hidden in the .ebuild file, but I think I shouldn't be lazy
and paste them here. ;)

src_compile() {
    econf --enable-transarc-paths --enable-namei-fileserver --enable-full-vos-listvol-switch --with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr/src/linux --enable-bitmap-later --enable-fast-restart --enable-largefile-fileserver --enable-bos-new-config || die econf
    make CC="$(gcc-getCC)" MT_CC="$(gcc-getCC)" || die make
}

The above results in:

./configure --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --enable-transarc-paths --enable-namei-fileserver --enable-full-vos-listvol-switch --with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr/src/linux --enable-bitmap-later --enable-fast-restart --enable-largefile-fileserver --enable-bos-new-config


Why is there "--prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib"? OK, I believe that's because of general Gentoo instalation paths. But see the $subj, the point here is to install openafs into *standard* locations. In real it doesn't matter for the install process performed by the ebuild, as it installs files in "manual" way and ignores "make install" step. Still, for completeness I'd like to see this removed from this ebuild behaviour.


3)
The ebuild as I've said install config file into well-known location. I can imagine having symlinks from "standard Gentoo places" to them.
Currently I have commented that out.

    # symlink configfiles in TransArc location to Gentoo's typical place
    # dosym /usr/vice/etc/CellServDB /etc/afs/CellServDB
    # dosym /usr/vice/etc/ThisCell /etc/afs/ThisCell
    # touch /usr/vice/etc/cacheinfo


4)
Could someone explain me CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK?

    # Hmm, what about this?
    dodir /etc/env.d
    # don't know what's this CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK usefull for
    echo 'CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/afs/C /etc/afs/afsws"' \
        >> ${D}/etc/env.d/01${PN}
    echo 'PATH=/usr/afs/bin' \
        >> ${D}/etc/env.d/01${PN}
    echo 'ROOTPATH=/usr/afs/bin' \
        >> ${D}/etc/env.d/01${PN}


Thanks for answer. ;)
Martin
